"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.

Tonight we had the first game of the season for my company's softball team. My first at bat I hit the ball and started running to base. Two steps off home plate my quads felt like they were being ripped in two by fiery daggers. Not just one leg, both of them. It still fvckin hurts to move.

I'm guessing I just pulled or strained them. Any suggestions on how to get them back to normal? Ice? Heat? I can never remember when I use what.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

If anything, ice. If it stays like that for a long time, consult a doctor or physician.

You didn't warm up.

Yeah, I was running behind as I was at the eye doctor so I get there and they tell me I'm benched because I was late and then two seconds later they're telling me I'm up to bat.

But, the question is, why did that happen in two steps, where I've not warmed up before and sprinted (late for class, chasing a loose dog, etc.) and nothing happened?
 

"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.

You were lucky and not trying as hard.
