"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.

And if you slightly dont trust them, why all the questions about this or that?

Idk...im just frustrated at the moment.
 

"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.

I trust women, and if they break my trust I don't speak to them again. Always best to give them the benefit of the doubt at the beginning. Innocent until proven guilty.

A lot of guys take the "guilty until proven innocent" approach, and the problem with that is you lose all of the girls who were innocent to begin with (aka the ones you actually want).

i give them as much benefit of the doubt as anyone when I first meet them. However, I don't think I will ever trust a woman to love me unconditionally. In that way, I would never believe a girl who said such a thing.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

There are things I trust about them:
1) I trust that they will demonstrate their true feeling through their actions
2) I trust that they will do what they perceive to be in their own best interest
3) I trust that when they say they will act differently from above, that they may be sincere and even believe what they are saying, but, the vast majority of the time...

I trust every new woman I meet in life in any capacity 0%.

THEN each woman has a chance to gain my trust by her actions and build up.

Generally the best might make it up to 70%. To get past that mark with me there must be something major come up in MY life where I need them to go above and beyond for ME, with nothing it for themselves, and they do it and come through for me. My mother is the only one who has ever passed this mark and got to 100%. I really don't look for any others to make it there the rest of my life.

I don't trust people who are one sex pretending to be another.

I trust women if they are close friends. My close friends I know will have my back, man or woman.

With regards to relationships, no I dont really trust women. Maybe Ill meet one in the future I can trust. But at this point in my life I do not trust them with regards to relationships.
 

"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.

My mother is the only woman I'd trust. In fact she is probably the only person in the world I'd trust full stop

I think some of us are interpreting the word "trust" in different ways.

I use "trust" to mean "trust that she will behave honestly with me."

If by "trust" you mean "trust that she will treat me like an equal and we can have a type of friendship as between brothers," then no way in fricking HELL.
