k theres this girl in one of my classes, and her and one of her friends go on the topic of hair and crap. well she has naturaly strait hair but sometime she like puts crap in it to make it wavvy which i personaly think looks kinda cheap and dumb and i told her that i like it better when its staight, cause she was talkin about all the diff. stuff she does with it. Now was i out of line or was she just over reacting when she was like wow that was mean. i just played it cool and acted like she was just freakin out about nothing.
"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.
Was this out of line

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

what should/could have happened
Me: I like it better straight.
Her: Wow, that's kind of mean.
Me: It's not mean. It's truthful. Or should I lie to you and tell you it looks beautiful, when in reality I could surf all the waves in your hair.
Her: OMG! ... you know what?!...
Me: *interupt Her before she spews negative comments* ... Truthfully, you're hairs not bad, but you might look hot with it straight. Try it, and if you dont give even one guy a boner, then I guess I was wrong. *Smile*

Depending on how edgy your usual conversations are... this might defintelly not fit you... but I tend to talk like this on a day to day basis.

You could try this.
Not caring. Just think to yourself and imagine how much life they're wasting by wondering if their hair looks good every minute.
Personally, once you hear a chick blab on about something that she thinks is bad which it is oviously not, then I start laughing inside. Then I start paying her out about that certain 'insecurity' in a sarcastic way.

Yes! A mock sarcastic, whiny voice about your own hair being out of place, or one of my favourites : 'Oh no! I broke a nail!' or 'I haven't got my makeup on and its awful!' say something like that in a whiny voice with a grin, gets a laugh every time, works as a neg about their complaints, and best of all shuts tem up about their appearance. At least for a few minutes anyway... <_<
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I wouldn't pay attention to stuff like that unless they'd ask me
