Deva: Living Outside The Ladder (Complete Story)

Meet Deva Ratnam, a 14 year old boy genius entering high school as a senior student. Unlike several examples of young prodigies (think TJ Henderson from Smart Guy and Sheldon Cooper from Young Sheldon), Deva, despite breezing through his courses thanks to his high IQ of 155, finds majority of school subjects boring except for sciences. There's one science he has yet to figure out, and that's the science of dating. Unfortunately for Deva, his entire school knows him as the uber-nerd and is thus avoided by many students as a result. Seeing no other choice, Deva decides to take matters into his own hands by becoming a man of self-sufficiency, determined to not have his life defined by social statuses and social circles. He builds a life outside of school.

Some situations Deva will answer the following questions about dating for men.

-How do you approach a girl you like?
-What do you say to her after you approached her?
-How can you tell when she wants to be approached vs when she doesn't?
-How can you tell if she just doesn't like you?
-How do you handle getting rejected?
-How do you set up a date with a girl you like?
-What do you do when a girl you like puts you in the friendzone?
-When do you go for the kiss?
