"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

This seemed worthy of reflection

So, this weekend, I had three different girls, hb7+, throwing themselves at me on the same night. I was just bein' myself, singing songs and havin' drinks with my friends.

Granted, they were college girls, so it's not all that difficult to be impressive when you're employed and you don't look like a frat boy.

I managed to surprise myself and not take any of them up on their offers. Immediately I thought to myself, "It's free, you jackass! Take it!"

But, I thought about the sound of the voice in my head, and it sounded like high-school-me.

I was already having a good time either way. I was out with my friends, some of whom I haven't seen in a while, and I was just content with where I was at that time - catching up about great things, making plans for the weeks to come, and just enjoying the new sh*t that's been happening to all of us.

So content, that I gave up an easy Saturday lay.

Even my friends were telling me that it was almost like I wasn't myself, and that I should go for these girls.

Initially I was inclined to agree with them, because of my, for lack of a better word, training.

But I stuck to my own guns and decided I wanted to stick around my friends - the ones I'd known for more than 10 minutes.

The following morning, which saw me narrowly avoid a hangover, I asked myself whether I was just being a p*ssy, or making excuses.

Maybe I was.

Regardless, I realized that when I asked myself whether I was being a p*ssy, that banging these girls, though it surely would have been enjoyable, wouldn't prove anything about myself that I didn't already know - that I like sex.

So, for possibly the first time in my life since I became aware of my d*ck, I was not swayed by my sex drive to bang for the sake of banging.

I've mentioned before on this board that my sex drive has always been my biggest weakness in terms of prioritizing my life. My id is a horny little grade schooler - he doesn't look out for my best interests because by definition, he can't. He wants tang without regard, and if he sees it in front of him he screams for it. When it's not around, he cries for it. And, like a nagging backseat driver, he's ALWAYS talking to me.

I don't know if I've mentally castrated myself, but I feel genuinely focused on my personal goals for the first time ever. It was a peaceful feeling. One where I feel that I always have the option of pursuing women, rather than the need.

I've started some new pursuits in the last month, and I'm also starting a new book project. That might have something to do with it.

I hope it lasts, because it feels like freedom.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

This has to be a good thing. Start leading your d*ck rather than being dragged along behind it.

They picked up on this and that's why they approached. Keep it up!

If they were 8's or 9's, would you had went with them? If so, you just have high standards, and that's only a good thing in my book.

Sounds to me that you're living through your core, and that's one of the best things there is. That's why all those monks are meditating all the time. You didn't feel like it, so you didn't do it. Props to you, man.

I sorta feel the same way now, peaceful and I never felt this good in my life. Every time I walk up to a girl now is because I want to do it, not because "I must get laid!11!". I think you and me both are on to something and it's good. Since I have reached this state, I can tell girls, and people altogether, react totally different to me. More open, more positive. I can make people smile just by looking at them.

I can only relate to myself, but I think we're sort of talking about the same thing.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
