"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.

Goddamn I love booblicious's honesty. Anyone who can outpost that damned Old Bird can't honestly have enough time out in the real world getting real experience. You can be the best KBJ in the world but I just can't see you keeping things around here in order. To be a Mod you must have a mean streak.

Sorry 'Cisco.

I would think WBA would be the ONLY person to Mod H&F.
No prob but I'll let you in on something I believe is true; there are more than a couple other people in the forum with really high post counts. It's not apparent because they've done it using several accounts. I'm actually proud to say that I have never had the need to create another identity. :D

I'll add that I can hold my own without having a consistent mean streak. During a couple of flame wars I've had posts deleted because of the crass things I had said about the flamer. I'm not complaining about it, just stating that some of the guys here have seen me with my horns and pointy tail.. ;)
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Somehow LMS is the only person who has managed to make it on my mute list so far. Not even wyldfire yet. I have alot of tolerance for most people but not dip$hits like LMS.
This is a good example of a post that has the intention of starting a flame war!! I'm sure Francisco wouldn't allow such slander to be publicized!! I'm not even going to respond, in kind, to this flame by this Homo!!!

Wyldfire- why did she get banned?

Whether you LIKE her or DONT - that issue aside.. Just want to know the REASON? Anyone?

Men don't need to justify themselves or their actions.

Yes they do (generally) - to the society......It would be a different storry if you lived in the mountans where your actions don't impact anybody esle.

In this case it was for the good of the forum; she was a magnet for contraversy, arguing etc....and she refused to pick her battles.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I don't know, maybe it could be considered free advertisement to attest to one's infamy. There's someone who lists the people that they're ignoring in their sig, I think he listed both of us! :up: Hey, whatever a person needs to do to get by....

Isn't quoting, replying, and attacking him a "response"?

This thread has veered off course.

Lets get back on topic
 

"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.

Anyone who seeks to be a mod should be disqualified as a sane candidate.

I might have to agree with that. Who would want a hard thankless job like that anyway...
