Good, now get that line out of your sig as well; otherwise I'll feel like I've been typing all that sh*t for nothing.jdawgmcb said:Thanks for the advice you guys
I think i'll try to focus on having more "fun" for the rest of the time that I have
I am going to go to a large university hopefully, so maybe that will help out a lot too
"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.

"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.
Yea man, definitely! Inner game is the most important thing. Like I said, things started to change drastically once I started sorting that out. After that comes the outer game. You need a good foundation to build that on. Learning lines and routines while you don't have inner game is like building a house on quicksand. It's not going to work.
There is some good stuff on here, but I really recommend you to read this. It really changed about how I felt about myself and life in general. Despite the sh*tty cover, there is some really good stuff in there.
Gain confidence, learn to love yourself. If you feel good about yourself, people around it will feel it and they will like you more. Talk to as many people you can, male and female. It will learn you to have a good conversation.

"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.
