How would you ? Just wondering? Is her illness all to blame?
"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.
How would you respond to this? Regarding Lindsey Clancy

How would you ? Just wondering? Is her illness all to blame?
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.

Ignore it, treat it with the contempt it deserves.

‘ Lol geez, if you’re dating anyone who happens to support Lindsey Clancy, you and me have issues, I can tell you that much’- this was my original statement.

I wouldn't. But I actually wouldn't have bothered to get into this debate in the first place.
These types of things are for people with too much time on their hands...

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"Oh, I recognize Lindsay Clancy's humanity... Like so many additional individuals in our species, girl can't be relied upon to behave honorably, once the cameras are shut off. Nor is she especially eager to take her share of responsibility when her misdeeds are uncovered
Her thinking and behavior is typical/what we can accurately anticipate, in 8 out of every 10 people we encounter. I'm just no longer satisfied with that which is typical, banal, and stale"
