"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.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Anyone can have a midlife crisis, not just men. I suggest you take an intro psych class at your local JC.

From what I've seen and heard it usually tied into the lack of accomplishments that they are truly passionate about; mostly because they don't really know what they are passionate about. The majority of their accomplishments are those which he felt helped define him by society's standards and not his own.
 

"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.

Am kind of in a midlife crisis rightnow, basicly I never accomplish what I wanted when I was younger such as: spending my youth having fun rather then working or being too lazy and miss the gold rush etc... then that am older I tried to relive to youth year by driving nice car, buy nice clothes and do things I shouldn do because am not at that age anymore. While doing it I realize that it just not for me, so am stuck not knowing where to go.

Yea thats what mid-life crisis is in a nutshell.
