Jerry's flush remained as he translated Rep's advice. "I don't mean to come across that way-" Obviously, but he supposed he did anyway. "I mean... it's hard NOT to get nervous. Especially with ah... my um. Track record."

"Didn't say you meant it. I know its no something you do intentionally man. But it still leaves a certain impression. You've got no reason to be nervous, I mean you say you have a track record, I say you have a track record of wooing a whole ******** heap of women and even bitches other people wouldn't have a chance of. And most of them were when you were more happy and confident." he shrugged. "I'm no one to be giving advice on confidence, I'm no actually all that confident, I just like to over-compensate so no c**t is any the wiser, but you knew that." he smirked
"But aye you just, need to like. If there's one rule to bitches. Talk about what THEY like. Even if its the most boring s**t in the world. No music, no the s**t you like, even if you think that will get you common ground, you just always start on them. Always them. Flattery makes the world go round. You won't startle them that way."

"Hmm." He looked thoughtful, mulling this over. "Well. You seem pretty confident to me. Overly confident. If you're just covering, you do a really good job of it, ahahaha!"

"Aye. It's part of the game, if you act confident hard enough, cunts will believe it even when you are anything but." he shrugged. "Never feel like I'm good enough for anything on this island, not good enough at fighting, at being a nice guy none of that s**t. But I'll be damned if I'll let those other cunts get any idea of it, otherwise they just go for the throat."

Jerry gaped, "It's.... it's a lot harder than just... will powering through! I just... I don't know, the more I like a girl the more... I don't know. The harder it is. I just get so nervous and then I do and say and think stupid things and it's hard to just... CONFIDENCE your way through!"

"It's no actually a lot harder than that. Women are attracted to guys who don't NEED them, they want to impress guys who are aloof, interested but not desperate. Even if you ******** adore someone and like them a lot, you have to give them room to show you they like you, by giving them slack they can pick up. If you just like go in all guns blazing it spooks them, it gives that ******** creepy stalker vibe."
He shrugged. "Sometimes confidence is just being relaxed and not seeming like if the person doesn't like you you might put them in a sack and make strings out of their entrails."

Jerry made a face at the grotesque imagery, but nodded quietly all the same as he mulled it over. "So.... so... like... ask THEM what song they want me to play?"

Rep looked unimpressed. "No ******** quite man. That's something you'd do on like the second date. The first date has to be all them, and you just have to sit and listen. They need to feel important. That's how it works. You just need to stop being selfish for like, a few hours a ******** day."

Jerry's face went red. He didn't think he was being SELFISH... just... maybe a bit one track minded. He exhailed and struck a chord, "Alright, noted." With a weak smile he glanced back up at the peanut butter licker, "What about you?"

Rep gave Jerry an encouraging smile, impressed the other man was even hearing him out on this stuff. When it was turned on him, the smile faded. "Me? Well er. I like, guess I need to just. People need to not piss me off?"

"People are GOING to er... anger you. That's just how people are, ahahaha. You just gotta' learn some good techniques to temper that anger. You don't want them to get the best of you, right?" He looked thoughtful for a moment, "There's counting to ten, although that one doesn't always work- ah! You could just think of something funny instead? Laughing the rage off is always healthy! And honestly, if someone's TRYING to er... p-piss you off, then it would take them off guard. No offense but ah... you get angry REAL easy. Makes a target of yourself!"

"People don't ******** need to anger me and I'm not about to let them think it's fine to needle at me. I'm no going to be a ******** doormat, I just need them to back off and not to cross the line in the sand." he crossed his arms stubbornly.
"I don't think much is funny that isn't other people's misfortune either so I don't think that would help." he narrowed his eyes. "I can't ******** help it if I get angry easy either! People are just really ******** annoying."

"W-well, um. I mean. I'm not the best person to give advice on this sort of thing but, well... I mean. If I've learned anything in all my mishegoss,.. it's that you really can't change other people. You can only change yourself. You know?"

"Wheras I know pretty definitively like, you can't change yourself. If people can't deal with me they'll never be able to ******** deal with me." he shrugged. "I won't be killing anyone else anyway any time soon. I can't even get charges off them. And Tracey won't let me ******** do anything anyway. Maybe that alone will be enough to stop it."

"It's not EASY, but you can. You... you probably don't even remember what I was like when I first signed up. You think I'm a mess now? Ahahahaha I wasn't really cut out for this sort of thing- our job here. This lifestyle. But somehow I've managed to evolve with it, even if I don't like it all and er.... yeah um. Relationships." He coughed. "I nearly killed Jordan once, you know. During a spar."
