"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Girl lying about her age

I recently started dating this chick who I KNOW is 19. (A quick internet search pulls up the old birth announcement in the local newspaper archives)
She tells me she is 20 and how she is looking forward to her 21st birthday next year, even though I know she just turned 19 a few months ago. My question is why would she do this?

I mean when I was a couple years younger I had to deal with 17 year old girls telling me they were 18 all the time, but that at least makes sense. 18 is a legal adult so I get why they would do it.

I could even understand her lying if I was significantly older than her (late 20s/30s), but I'm not. I'm 22 and she knows this. 19 and 22 isn't uncommon so I just don't get what she thinks she has to gain by telling me she is 20.

Insights?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

no clue but do you really want to spend your time with someone who would lie like this? if you dont call her on this then she understands that she can lie about other things and you'll never know. Show her your drivers license picture and say it is the ugliest pic ever and then ask to see hers b/c you're sure it's adorable. If she refuses to pony up her DL you have a huge issue sitting in front of you.
She want to drink....
That crossed my mind as well

Well if she wanted to drink, why wouldn't she go with saying she's 21?

Also I was thinking the driver license thing would be a good idea

She slipped up and I playfully got her to confess. The I teased the **** out of her for it and told her I knew the whole time. I think she got the message that she can't get away with lying to me.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

She didn't want you to think she was too young for you or treat her like a kid
