"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.

Diablo - closing threads.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I totally disagree with these guys. As I said in another thread, you can't blame Diablo for applying the rules, you should blame SoSuave's founder for imposing some rules that frankly I don't like either. Rules as "no politics" and "no threads already discussed" are pretty stupid in a forum, since the meaning of a discussion board is to discuss... also things already talked about.

I dont blame Diablo for closing political threads. But this thread was economical, it had a small portion of politics in it, but the vast vast majority was on economics. This is where the rules become blurred, and this is where it is being a nazi closing a thread like that. No other mod closed it, and most over the years I have been here would have let it go on. It was NOT degenerating, and was NOT political. So a few people can go into a thread and say, liberal politics SUCK, and it will be closed? Even if its someones journal on their latest "field reports"? Same difference. A few idiots making political comments does not make a thread political. Thats my problem. I never said Diablo should be banned or have his mod status taken away as I dont post here enough these days to really see any of the posts he has made. I have just noticed a few threads being closed lately that would have not been closed over the last 4+ years. Have the "rules" changed recently?

Blast it all! I thought I logged into the pvussy-gittin forum, not some financial network, not a X-box 360 vs Playstation 3 forum, and certainly not a “George Bush’s eyes are too close together so he’s a retard..” forum.

I am quite surprised that ENTIRE SECTIONS of this forum are not just expunged, like so many super-models’ breakfasts.

So what are you saying dude? Does Diablo suck or not? :D
 

"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.

NOT.

There is too much fat here, trim it, nip it, axe it.

Probably a result of my extremely short attention span. Make me a mod and no post would ever exceed 4 sentences (and non of that weird-ass james joyce thousand-word sentence sh*t!).

47, but I am now reading on a 50 year old level.

I was too vague. My point, there is TOO much here, its not one forum, its 10 and expecting it all to be moderated (properly or not) is unrealistic.

There is a lot of great stuff here, but huge heaps of garbage too that needs to be taken out (by the mods) on an hourly basis.

Diablo is the reason everyone left sosuave for mystery method
actually, I haven't checked out mystery method, and don't intend to. In defense of Diablo, I haven't ever seen him post an illogical or overreacted post, and I have been with this site for a fair amount of time (although of late I have not checked in at all). I respect him. I am not a$$kissing right now, but just stating some truth. Besides, even if Diablo was perfect, he will always have someone to detract from him, as do all authorities.
