"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.

Inside her mind
anybody dealt with this before, how do you handle this? I'm thinking about taking my profile down, thoughts?
 

"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.

You don't need to take your profile down because you saw your co-worker Period.
you are there to find chicks, you do your search.

What's the coworker gonna do? Make fun of you for looking for a date on the same site where he/she is doing the same thing?

I saw some coworkers on OK Cupid. I blocked them (I think).

that reminds me of the time i logged on to okcupid and right underneath where it says: these women are interested in you!

Was a photo of my little sister!?!?!? (among other okcupid chicks)

got a good laugh at that.

when I saw her at thanksgiving I said hi there ****** (her okcupid name) and her eyes got huge and she yelled "shut up!"

heh heh
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I've bumped into co-workers, ex classmates, ex girlfriends.

Always awkward at first, but then... meh

I've got my profile hidden right now and I think that's the way i'll keep it. Not like girls really initiate messages so what's there to lose?
