"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I muffed up my ankle pretty badly last night using one of the best tricks in the book: the ol' "Falling-blindly-off-a-curb-because-you're-a-total-retard."

What fun!

Question is, How can I, uh, "make it better"? Sure it'll take time, but what do you guys do to alleviate the whole shebang? What types of things can I do that'll speed recovery?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

RICE method for sprains.

Rest
Ice
Compression
Elevation

And take an NSAID (Non-steriodal anit-inflammitory drug) (that's ibruprophen or acetaminophen) for pain.

The Ice-Hot treatment....submerge your foot in a bucket of ice....and leave it there as long as you can tolerate...then take in out...and apply heat to it...(if you don't have a heat pad...get some hand towels...wet them...and put them in the microwave...to heat them up....)....repeat the process...10-15mins Ice...then 10-15 mins heat....should reduce the swealing...also try not to put too much weight on it when walking...and keep it elevated at night time...to minimize blood flow to the ankle....

Any time guesstimate here? 'cause I've been taking cold showers every day here for a long time, now, and I... well, I "can tolerate" quite a bit :D

EDIT: I mean an overall time guesstimate (IE, How long is best? An hour at a time with two-hour breaks inbetween, or a marathon 16-hour-long session once a day?)

"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.
