"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.

There was this girl at work. She's classy and we have a lot in common, so I tried to date her. Loved talking to her at work, but I tried not to make the affection obvious because I like my position in the company. Only flirted when we were alone, but didn't touch her.

She was leaving the company, so I got her number to stay in touch. SMSed her while I was on a holiday to ask how's it going at the company. I knew the company decided to have her working there for a bit longer. Kinda indirect, because I was also wondering how the people were working with the system me and a mate have introduced in the company.

When I got back I SMSed to get together for a drink after she was done working. No response. Called her in the evening. She didn't pick up. Was this my low? I think she knew she doesn't have to chase from then on. Asking for a first date in a text message is bad right?

Next week I had some good convo's with here again and DHV'ed. All the colleagues were asking me stuff etc. I was helping all the women in the company out. So I thought she wanted to grab a drink after work on Friday. But nah, she had shopping to do. Okay... Told her I would have had limited time as well (true) and went home.

I think the shopping excuse was true, however I didn't take it lightly. Gave her the gift of missing me for a week and called her last night. She didn't pick up again.

So basically she responded to one of my SMSs. Is there any hope? She is kind of busy with her new place, but I thought she would pick up her phone because of all the rapport. If she never does, I'm on a dead end track.

btw: on the side I am doing some feeling good approaches, but I 'forget' to close too much.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Best advice for this will be to erase her phone number from your phone, then erase her pretty face from your memory. Get out there and find someone else. You lost this one with the first text message. Next time a girl gives you her number, call her and set up a date. That's the whole point of getting the number. You don't call to talk. That's for her girlfriends, gay guy friends, and guy friends who might as well be gay.

First off, she's not interested in you. While you might have had several great conversations with her, the fact is that she was being polite and enjoying your company in the workplace.

The fact that you've attempted to contact her several times over the past couple weeks without a positive response should tell you all you need to know. It was definitely not a good idea to ask her out over a text message, that's a weak frame to work with and she can give you a million excuses for that.

Last thing: You cannot give a girl who has no interest in you, the gift of missing you.

NEXT!!

Omg dude stop it already. Quit calling her and texting her. Shes not interested and now shes probably creeped out. Just because a girl has good conversations with you doesn't mean she wants to date you. Take a hint and stop before she tells everyone you are harassing her.
 

"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.

I texted her while she was working. Would be weird to call with her while she is around colleagues who I worked with for months. I wanna next her, but she might never call/text then. If I only had one shot on the phone, I could set up a meet and take it from there... Or does this sound too desperate? I know, I know: it screams oneitis to say she is unlike most other women in a better way. Oh well, I'll charge it to the game.
