"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.

Being well dressed doesn't mean you're a hipster douche bag.
the OP is well dressed. she called him boring, and hipster clothing is "not boring". Thus, don't fall for craze, and dress up like a hipster to avoid being boring.
 

"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.

I personally think your attire is a bit weird.

Especially the trench coat. Ditch that. Approaching woman in that will just make them laugh at you (Unless you are a real natural at picking up- which I assume you aren't...So for now drop the **** that isn't going to help).

Get some colour happening, it will help brighten up your look. Dressing in all black is a big thumbs down from most people.

And a hat is just a hat. Wear it if you feel like wearing a hat I guess?

Go clothes shopping.

If he were to change his attire completely I would agree with you, but every one on here has replied with subtle changes to his outfit.

Not boring. Creepy maybe.

You dress like a lot of guys that are different and quirky. Which begs the question, why do different people dress alike? But anyway, I wouldn't call it boring. Or even creepy. Just quirky.

And there's nothing wrong with being quirky. Plenty of girls will dig it out there.
 

"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.

Well, given the feedback of the thread, I went shopping on saturday and got myself a cool shirt from Officers Club. I'll post a photo once I get a good one.
