"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

2 Days Till The Shared Custody Hearing...

"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.

Got all my papers in order (salary, work history, health ins,)

I've even got letters from friends who are offering babysitting services.

I'm sure it will go in front of a mediator, aka third party, and it will be broken down to a schedule that we both, hopefully, can agree upon.

It would be nice if I got my son for more than everyother weekend, and Wednesdays. Hopefully, my child support will be dropped a lil more too.
She makes twice as much as I do a year, and I still shell out $560 a month. wtf?

Good luck brother. Keep your guard up at all times. Expect some BS from left field just for the fvck of it.

please update us as soon as that hearing is over with .
i can not imagine why a judge would not give you 50-50 at this point.
your son is no longer a baby/toddler, and he needs equal time with both parents. any court that sees a father fight to get shared custody and that can actually provide what is needed, who has stayed out of trouble, should have no beef with that.
once they say it is 50/50 i am pretty sure that support amount will go down also.

no one can guarantee what the judge/mediator will say but i just can't see them saying no unless they have due reason.

Anybody who has followed me on this knows what I've had to go thru... with his mom, my dealings with the daycare, with my visitation being withheld from me (tis the reason I filed)... anybody who knows me, knows I love my son.

I am a good father, striving to be the best. I haven't so much as a driving ticket (2004) on my record. I work 12hrs a day 7 days a week on average to make sure my family is taken care of.

Everything I do, I do for my son. Like I said... before I'm a lover, a playa, a friend, I'm a father.. first and foremost. All my energy, with every fiber of my being, all day, every day, is spent making sure my son is loved, and well taken care of. Nothing else matters.... my purpose in life right now, is raise my son to be the best he can be.

But to do that, I need more time with him than what I'm allowed now. I hope and pray that by tomorrow, that will change. Even if I just get one more day than what I have now, I will be happy. I don't care if they don't reduce my child support, and I'll straight up tell them that. If I'm allowed to sign his report card, help decide where he goes to school, I'm totally cool with that.

He told me today, he wanted to come to court with me.......... it made me smile. :)

I told him he couldn't, but I would be by to pick him up as soon as it was over.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
