"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.

- Start date
"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.

To make me ***! :crackup:
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

This may be because I'm an old fart, but the exclusive articles sound as if they were written by bitter AFCs.

I was just about to say that...you hit it on the head (one post up)
i don't think it is anything wrong with venting about women. alot of people keep their feelings bottled up and start doing self destructive things. alot of the stuff he writes is pretty on point in my book because women are very disrespectful towards men...especially western women. the things most men put up with for some pu$$y is ridiculous.
the article i like the best is the one about not getting married. i would never marry an american women considering the rise (over 65%) in divorce and how women initiate them. futhermore i can't see myself being faithful to a woman forever no matter how much i "love" her or how attractive she is. also he has great things about how a man needs to define his own life and stop worrying about what skirts think all the goddamn time. the site in my book is saying MAN UP!!

It just sounds like you guys need to stop wasting time with women like that and just focus on higher quality women.

Perhaps. Ever wonder if there is a corollary between their negative attitude toward women and their success (or lack of) with women?
of course it is. if you have negative experiences with women you will have a negative attitude towards them. i don't know the guy who writes that stuff but i will say that i don't think he hates women. his articles are not bitter about not getting laid. i think he hates the overall disrespect women dish out to men. especially when it comes to how women manipulate the hell out of men to get what they want. and how western society justs sit back and support it. you see it in movies, tv, mags, etc. it's all bull$hit! i'm just glad somebody out there is recognizing the $hit and writing about it.....to each it's own though.
