How can I tell if what I'm about to say is corny or too tryhard?

Whenever you have any doubt in what you just said.

It isn't really about what you say, but HOW. Even romantic/clingy phrases said by a player will have a different effect than said by a low status guy.

It’s try hard If you’re doing it all for the validation and acceptance you think you desperately need.

An example is those times you’ve been on the way to the gym etc and some spontaneous conversation with a hot girl arises and you don’t think about your responses even though you’re interested - you just do them and it’s easy. That’s the Zen of interaction & attraction.

If you have a strong frame you can play off anything, and in fact sometimes it’s the very cliche ridiculous shit that makes women laugh the most of you say it in a half serious way that sort of acknowledges how corny it is.
