unicode needs to add a negative space

[-] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 79 points 2 weeks ago

Practice. It gets easier with practice

[-] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 48 points 2 weeks ago

A well written resume, a firm handshake, and a willingness to knock on doors is the key to success.

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 16 points 2 weeks ago

Don't be afraid to pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

[-] Atropos@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

I keep doing exactly this to the girl at the gas station but it hasn't worked yet??

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe ask first?

[-] orcrist@lemm.ee 43 points 2 weeks ago

Anon never learned "practice makes perfect" lol.

[-] tfw_no_toiletpaper@lemmy.world 32 points 2 weeks ago

OP also did not go outside for the past 15 years

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 21 points 2 weeks ago

Who said that? Nothing comes passively except death.

[-] Comment105@lemm.ee 13 points 2 weeks ago

It's pretty common to tell depressed or struggling people that things get better/easier, as if it happens passively and they just need to stick around, just hold out.

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 weeks ago

That is true of the moment. Moments of pain and morning do pass just like moments of happiness. But an unhealthy lifestyle makes pain more likely.

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 21 points 2 weeks ago

Have you tried being blackout drunk?

That's what did it for me

[-] Shard@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

Does profusely apologizing for puking on their dress count as conversation?

If yes then I'll have you know I'm quite the socializer.

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago

Well it's a start isn't it?

Just do a little better next time and the next time and the next time.

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 weeks ago

You can improve at being black out drunk?

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yes.

I'm sure it has some effect on your subconscious

[-] Comment105@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

But what if the next time is in 8 years, and then the next ones after that are 5 and 13 years apart? Won't be much improvement then, and it'll be 26 years later and you'll be pushing 60.

[-] Wanderer@lemm.ee 6 points 2 weeks ago

You can squeeze that all into one month.

[-] CaptnNMorgan@reddthat.com 7 points 2 weeks ago

Me too, I woke up with 2 or 3 phone numbers in my pocket. I texted one of them and was greeted by an angry boyfriend, I either didn't text the others or they didn't reply, but it boosted my confidence a lot. So much so that I was able to talk to girls before I blacked out

[-] jmj88@lemm.ee 17 points 2 weeks ago

What no one says is you have to make a fool of yourself quite a few times before it gets easy. But it’s worth it.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago

Legit feel bad for people who are socialized like this.

[-] DemocratPostingSucks@lemm.ee 14 points 2 weeks ago

It might be true, but it's the last thing people need to hear when they're 15

[-] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

Not being able to treat people like people because they have different genitals, proving age is just a number.

[-] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 10 points 2 weeks ago

You dont know what happened to this person.

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 weeks ago

Coping does get easier.

[-] VagueDirector@aussie.zone 7 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah I am coming to the same realisation. If anything it gets worse, since as an adult you are naturally going to be more isolated when you aren't forced to socialize.

[-] Spesknight@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Wait to turn 40, I don't give a f**k anymore what people think...

[-] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

That only works if you manage to make it there without hating YOURSELF.

[-] mctoasterson@reddthat.com 2 points 2 weeks ago

Pretend you like, and are interested in the meaning of, her unnecessary wrist tattoo. That's good for at least 5 minutes of conversation.

[-] Noodle07@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

-Found a girl with a flower wrapping around her wrist and hand, I was genuinely interested because it was pretty af thank you
