"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.

Grabbing the most attention!

Hello,

As this is my first post ever on the forums (I have been reading for a few weeks), here are a few words about myself. I am a 17-year-old boy (young man?) from Northern Europe. I am not scared to talk to girls (I mean, I can quite easily hit on strangers, too, although I still tend to fail. But I do know it takes some practice!). Also, at parties I am able to grab the attention and thus flirt and hit on the girls, using the C&F techniques etc.
Well, is it not that you need to grab some attention to have some chance to flirt and hit on girls? As I already stated, I am usually able to get into the centre of attention, because most of the other guys that are around, are AFCs or Mr. Nice Guys. BUT when there is one certain friend of mine (actually I could say he is my best friend) around, I am fvcked. I mean, he is the funniest guy I know. His dance moves are great (not that I could not dance - I am good, but he is better!), he makes everyone laugh (I can do that, too, but he is better), she flirts a lot and is great at the C&F stuff and kino (again - I can do it all, but he is just better and I am left to the background!!), and so on, and so on.
So the question is - what should I do? Yeah - I whould improve myself and be better? Learn some better dance moves, make better jokes etc? But really - what can I do when he is around to grab some more attention than he gets!? It is like the party is ruined for me, if he is around, lol. Actually it is extremely fun with him, but hey, he gets the attention (which means the girls are his, too!).

Any suggestions, lol? Sorry if it was too hard to understand as English is my third language. But looking forward for some nice advice that I am sure to get.

Thanks!

"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.

I used to hav this problem. Dont try too hard in an effort to compete with him. others will see this and see u prob as desperate for attention, which, u know, repels attention.

He may be funnier than u, a better dancer, etc... but u must be the same around as u are not around him. It'll be better if u can show how u and him are different, in a social setting. He cant be better than u at everything.

Work off each other, wingman style. Go out sarging together. If you're funny and your friend is funnier, then I'm sure that the two of you will have the girls flocking ot you.
