This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This, when I got out of the you need to chase phase I started having much more success on the dating aspect of social life.
Shooting your shot early works best, if they're not interested no harm no foul. I've even had one become my wingman basically and introduced me to her friends. And let me tell you my dudes, girls make the best wingman.
Show us a picture of your face.

Shiiit well, duh. Of course, Yung Sheo pullin' game. All his girls Akaviri or daedric
Shooting your shot early is functionally the definition of creepy.
EDIT: As of when I'm typing this, 18 creepy neckbeards were very upset I said the truth out loud like that.
You have to follow actual social clues and not try to just fuck every women that talks to you for 10 minutes. If you do that, "early" just means "at the right time."
That's what the original 4chan poster was doing. It's good advice.
After going out for coffee and texting regularly for a month, I think the right time could've probably come sooner.
The shot wasn't even made by the end of it.
Communicating your intentions in a decent way is not creepy
Not sure what you mean by "in a decent way", but too early is how you get called a creep.
As always it matters how you convey your message. if you're too blunt you're obv gonna be called out for it. Learn to be smooth and noone will call you out besides assholes.
If you're ugly or beautiful af (by social standards) it doesn't affect the outcome as much tho, because beauty privilege.
