"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.

Yup, I obviously still sometimes feel pain about it, and am still somewhat getting over it, but for the most part I am feeling ok and only really down when I think about it. I'm not going to go into details about why we broke up... But it looks like she wants me back, of course after a month or so of no contact. She is a stubborn girl though, and doesn't want to give me the power by outright saying she wants me.

Hell part of me wants to get in the car and drive to her right now, but luckily I have been here long enough to not do that.
 

"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.

Too late, she says she is horny and wants to be friends with benefits plus she sounds a little drunk. Tap and run anyone? ;)

Yep, I did. We got along great, she was going on about how much she missed me, the sex last night was really good.

Minor problems.. My parents hate her, so she can't come here much. Her parents hate me so I can't go there much. Heh. Oh well, I'll take no strings sex for a while, might as well. I'm actually not surre if she wants to get back with me or just wants sex, oh well I'll just go with the sex and see what happens.
