"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.

When I get shy around girls, I sometimes deliberately or inadvertently try jealousy plotlines. That is, I will talk to another girl when she is around, to see what kind of reaction she gets.

On the one hand, it CAN make her jealous. Today, I was gaming a Russian girl seated next to me but then talked to another lady in a friendly way who was right next to us. The Russian gal gave me a very sharp look, at me then the older lady, then back at me.

The russian gal then said to the older lady, "so, how old are you?" The older lady volunteered the info, after hesitating, but I thought this was kind of rude! So yes, jealousy plotlines can work in this way.

However, I'm thinking it may have angered the Russian gal and she seems less friendly than before.

Any advice on how to deal with jealousy plotlines more skillfully, i.e., increasing attraction rather than generating resentment?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Did you ever think she asked how old you were because she was implying that you must be young since you're just playing jealously games? Jealously games should not be done with that thought it mind. Jealousy plot lines just happen. You spark attraction from all women so you naturally make other women jealous. Trying to pull a jealousy card may work every once in awhile, but it is no means the end all solution.

She didn't ask how old I was, she asked the other woman how old she was.
