"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.

Hey guys,

I RSVPed to a wedding with a +1 back when I was with my ex. The girl I was planning on taking now can't go. The wedding is this Saturday, and I'll feel like a complete a$$hole if they pay for a guest that I don't bring.

I really don't have many platonic female friends, and I don't want to bring a plate to this wedding because my parents and nearly my entire company will be there (president of my company's son is the groom).

Anyone have any decent ideas on finding a random girl (in person and/or online) to take? Tips? Am I completely crazy for even considering that? Obviously a wedding is quite different than asking a random girl to get a drink.

I almost feel crazy even asking this. But my time is running out. Appreciate any help.
 

"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.

Seriously? Nothing? Not even a post telling me I'm an idiot for thinking this?

you're willing to bring a total stranger but not a plate? I'm sure even if you bring a friend everyone would think she's a date, might as well bring a plate...one which would fit in well in the said event
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I actually would rather bring a stranger than deal with a plate thinking it's more than it is, and then needing to end it because she wants to be exclusive. Plus the one plate I even considered wouldn't be able to go.

I may ask this girl that works at my gym, I'm just hoping it doesn't get all awkward if she says no, since I see her 5 times a week.
