"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.

How exactly do you tell a buddy that his wife of nine years is doing other guys?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Standing At The Crossroads
When I was in college I was engaged to a gal. Bigtime oneitis. We lived together and we both worked at different bars at a large Big 10 school. One day, a guy I knew came up to me and said "5string, got something to tell you."

Me....what?
Him....I have been fvcking your girl. Thing is, even though I'm into her, she's been fvcking a couple other guys. I just found out and thought you should know because it's the right thing to do. She's trading her pvssy for cocaine.

I was stunned, hurt and confused. I actually thanked him for telling me as I considered how hard that must have been for him to be honest with me. He was hurt as well.

I kicked that slvt to the fvckin curb bigtime. Funny thing is, she denied everything.

Can't make up sh!t like this.

Hard to trust anyone after something like that.

Dear Albatross,
If you take the word of advice from a fool,do nothing...On two occasions in the past I have given friends life shattering information.....It backfired on me,and my friendships in both cases were shattered....In a metaphorical way,the recipient of the bad news,kills the messenger who brings the bad news!

it is true that the messenger often takes the beating for the sin, that said, If I were being cheated on and found out a good friend knew and did nothing...Id be p1ssed off with him.
if you are going to do it, gather hard evidence, photos, times dates, names. put it in a big envelope and leave it for him to find annonymously. that is one way.
personally Id front him up, tell him what you think of him as a friend but you cant just let this go unsaid. the thing to beware of is some guy actually have an idea she is cheating but dont want to confront the actual fact, as mad as that sounds, ignorance is bliss and they like to live in denial, not wishing their world to be shattered.
a lot depends on how well you know your friend, how he responds to crisis etc, past relationships.

its a damned if you do, damned if you dont scenario, good luck with whatever you do or dont.

Dear BTM,
"ignorance is bliss and they like to live in denial, not wishing their world to be shattered. ".....Really well put and I agree....The scenario where you give the anonymous tip off has its points,But,"What if",you did this and he murders her,or suppose there is serious "Bother"and your mate gets beaten up...how do you feel?....No,let the Man in the sky determine the outcome...surprising how often,if things take their natural course they resolve themselves...Inshallah!
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Thanks guys, some great advice. I think I've got something that will work. I am going to tell the wife of the guy she's currently doing. That should work, he'll likely find out as the two couples are very close. It's just sick all around.

"Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone". You may not be a cheater, but everybody has secrets including you. Just leave it alone.

there is a chance he may still not find out though! his partenr scream, has a fit, but think damn that b!tch she isnt getting my man, forgives him, affair ends, long cold distance betwen the couples only your mate hasnt a clue whats really happened...its a possibility, the guy who gets cheated on is oftne the last to find out and sometimes the only one who never finds out!

I think he will, just based on the situation. And knowing the person I'm telling, it won't be a forgive scenario.

As for casting stones, well if it was me, I'd want to know and he's a good friend.
