"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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Very important I'm sure. I'm bad at empathizing and wanted to hear from others

But if you have any long term aspirations, then it's absolutely necessary. The more the better. Of course, it's only one trait out of many that make a well rounded person. Definitely not a shortcut, and definitely not only applicable to creating attraction in ladies.
Being able to read between the lines, or to "read the air" as they say in Japan, is highly dependent on emotional intelligence.
If you were in sales, for example, having more emotional intelligence would be a huge asset, all else equal.
Despite beliefs to the contrary, all humans (not just ladies) are extremely emotional and rarely logical.
We ain't vulcans, that's for sure.

It's an oxymoron like 'jumbo shrimp'.
Logic and emotion are not friends.

That phrase is referring to how well someone can read and express emotions. And it’s describing the intelligence one has with emotions. Hence the ‘-al’ after emotion. Plus, ‘emotion’ was placed before ‘intelligence’. It would have been oxymoronic had that been reversed but it isn’t. Syntax and suffixes are key to determining what this means here. You don’t even have to have prior knowledge about what this is if you understand English very well."Emotional intelligence"
