"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.

When I'm with my buddies we kind of verbal spar with each other, which is pretty common among guys. Basically it could be anything from making comments about each others mothers or a jab at how bad your basketball game is etc. I think it's funny even when I'm not at the winning end. The problem is, the majority of the time I'm not at the winning end. I can't help but notice the similarities between amoging and the such. I consider it practice for AMOGing.

My problem is I'm too serious and take offense easily. I can't just relax and be cool about it. Any tips on how to AMOG my buddies and keep my cool?
 

"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.

What are they like when girls are around? I've known guys who turned into douches when we were around chicks. I don't get amogged anymore, let me tell you why.

Not to sound like a broken record, but hit the gym. The bigger you get, the less sh!t you will take, even in jest, whether girls are around or not. Everyone pities the weak, but jealousy you have to earn.

My friends are pretty cool when girls are around, most of them are naturals. They would never go out of the way to amog me or anything. I would never try to do that to them either. It's all about respect. I can't seem to be as witty as they are.

I'm trying to get bigger, I go to the gym all the time. Gaining weight is hard for me, but it's not like I'm some scrawny kid, I'm pretty cut.

Stop trying to think of witty comebacks to validate your own EGO. Your best offense is a great defense. Instead, just disarm their comments which allows you to maintain your value and lower theirs. There are 2 attractive ways I like to do this: 1) turn the negative into a positive 2) brush off their comments and express that "I don't care" without saying it

Example: you walk up and get "hey p-u-s-s-y"

Option 1: "hey everybody likes p-u-s-s-y, thanks for the compliment"
Option 2: "hold that thought" and talk about whatever you want to

*With experience and no EGO you can make witty comments for your own enjoyment (in your own "state") without trying to validate and salvage your EGO which brings me to.......

Option 3: "yea i'm a p-u-s-s-y but you're my douche bag!"- smile, laugh, and have fun

If you hear crap like that, look at them like they are crazy. Beat someone up if you have to. Don't listen to any junk about "fighting is AFC", fighting can be AFC in certain contexts, but if someone is outrightly disrespecting you like that, he does so thinking you won't do anything about it. With witty comments, you are forever having to come up with more witty comments and feeling frustrated.

Within any group there is always bs and banter, but if you ain't gonna have the sh!t directed at you, there is no faster and more effective way to stop it than to hurt somebody. We haven't been out of the woods that long.
 

"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.

serious insults can never be taken lightly nor if the same person after knowing you won't do anything starts to do it regularly.

Lol man. I'm not gonna fight my friends unless they really get out of hand. It's not like I'm the only target, it's directed at everyone and it's funny banter. It just seems like everyone keeps their cool better than me and comes back better. I don't want to have to hurt anyone to get respect.

I like the no ego thing, it shows it doesn't bother me. However I still want to sharpen my verbal skills.
