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.

LOL!! I had to comment. Literally laughed out loud reading that.adam225 said:A huge anal probe on the wall.
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.
could you and the other posters post picture of your apartments to give us an idea.nmartinez12443 said:THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP- YOUR APARTMENT SHOULD BE INCREDIBLY CLEAN ESPECIALLY THE BATHROOM.
1. Alchohol/food- 2 different bottles of wine red and white, vodka with mixers, craft beer, bottle water, various mixers, mini ice cream bars, hummus and pita bread, fruit, chips, chocolate, etc.
2. A large 42 inch hd television mininum, perfect for "movie nights" and access to netflix and or various movies.
3. A very comfortable couch.
4. A plant and unique artwork (can be had for cheap).
5. A sound system in the bedroom and living room, look to amazon.com. Create a playlist with chill music. I like rkelly slow wind, etc.
6. A mininum queen size bed preferrably pillow top with clean sheets.
7. A full length mirror outside the bedroom.
8. Clean decorative fluffy towels, I don't use them I have regular towels.
9. Condoms.
10. Glad Plug ins.

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

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.
