"17!? gee gosh golly whiz! You're so old! I'm 27 and have never had a girlfriend. I'm not saying I've never BEEN with women, but not for more than a month or so. Get off your @$$ and say hi to her. ask her to dinner. ask her to…"

"I wear the same one. Great quality. Waterproof and tough as hell. It's low key enough to wear with formal (albeit I'm 17) attire and not fancy enough to wear wear casually."

"Hey Buddy, Just remember this, it's not the end of the world if she says no.  Also just go in wanting a date, stop thinking about girlfriends etc."
