"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.

Theres this cute girl I sort of know from seeing at parties (im a college student), ive talked to her a few times, enough to say hi when we walk past each other on campus.

I think it would be strange and abrupt if I outright asked her out one day being as I havent talked to her in a few weeks, so I wanted to stop her and get lunch or dinner (in dining hall) first.

Should I just go for the date?

Shes a smiley and giggly girl anyways so looking for IOIs are kind of tough.

I'm thinking of how to steer a conversation next time i bump into her towards Indian food so that I can be like "hey we should go get indian! ive been craving some recently". would that be abrupt for me to ask that even though im not really friends with her, just loose acquaintances? would she even percieve it as a date?

Abrupt perhaps, but certainly not "too" abrupt. If anything, like you said, it might be so casual as to put you in too much of a friendly mode when you go out. Sounds like a fine idea though. Maybe somebody else will have a better one.

I would try to build as much rapport with her since you are in a college situation. Find some commonalities, that's how chicks click with guys or if you wave a couple $100 bills. But there's a feeling inside me, that you have already failed, something inside of me that thinks that you should've asked for her number right away on the first 1-2 meetings and then proceeding on courtship ritual.

Forget asking "Hey we should get X" get one thing down one at a time. Build rapport - not through phone or email but in person, let one thing lead to another. A girl who is interested will give you THAT time in person to talk to you.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
