"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.

I guess in N. Korea, sometimes you eat the dog, and sometimes the dog eats you.

North Korean Leader Fed Uncle To Starving Dogs

The Singaporean Straits Times cited a report from Wen Wei Po, a Beijing-control newspaper, that said Jang Song Thaek and five close associates were stripped and fed to 120 dogs that had not eaten for three days. The entire process, witnessed by 300 senior officials, lasted for about an hour, the report said. Fox News could not immediately verify the report.
 

"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.

I don't understand why someone just doesn't assassinate the guy.

Sounds like propaganda. I may be wrong.

^^^Could be, but what really sounds like propaganda is the reasons for their deaths.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

It's propaganda. The story said it was 120 "hounds" or "hunting dogs" who were deprived of food for five days. First of all, there is nothing left to hunt in North Korea, because the starving people have killed and eaten almost everything, including almost all the dogs. There would be no point in maintaining a kennel of 100+ hunting dogs. Secondly, domesticated dogs don't just eat people because they have been without food for a few days, especially hunting hounds. Thousands of years of domesticated breeding have taken that wild aggression out of them. Dogs are not the same as wolves. But North Korea doesn't have either one, so their people don't know that.

Now that I think about it, I bet the uncle found out he was about to die of cancer or something, and the dog story was all his idea, his way of taking one for the team to help his nephew's legacy. I would guess his actual death was the opposite of the story, a quiet suicide from something pleasant like morphine or heroin.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
