It's seems like everytime i voice my opinion or whatever. Even if i'm positive i'm right, because i have more experience in the subject. Everyone seems to disagree with me. For example some stupid girl in my video arts class who never stops *****ing about **** wanted to add transitions inbetween the shots, but me who has been doing it for 3 years told her it looks weird, and then she asked a random first year guy, and he disagreed with me. I know it's a weird question, but i'd appreciate if you guys can help in any way you can.
"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.
Everyone disagrees with me. It's infuriating!

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

got any other example? the one you gave could simply be the girl *wanting* her slides and the guy wanting the girl so he agreed with her; doesn't mean much. Do you have any concrete examples?
Also, on a sidenote, be more tactful when you disagree. Else people feel attacked

OH C'MON, YOU ASKED FOR IT!!!
Seriously, it's only an issue if you make it one. You do what you feel is right and let the others do the same. If they do something different than what you would do, would it change your life?
Dude, you are SO wrong, it isn't even funny. Lol.Rint said:
Of course, there are times when you have to be willing to TRY it to know. It can be infuriating when someone has a habit of just saying it won't work when they don't have any idea. Otherwise, if you're reasonable, no worries.
Heh. I had a stupid manipulative "goddess" wannabe (she didn't have much going on upstairs) cry - in a college class. It was kind of cool. I broke her brain. Of course, oon the other hand, she was manipulative and "hot" so I got a little crap for making the "poor girl" cry. But... I got to her, and I didn't let her get her way for once. It was kind of rewarding in a way.
And dude, sometimes you have to give in to the idiots, and let me tell you, videographers have a horrible reputation for being nonprofessional for a reason. I've worked for places that tried cheating me out of money, I worked for places that refused to listen to sense, and I improved the work on a few companies reputations.
But, they didn't act responsible, I'd get sick of the stupidity and lazyness, and I didn't stay long. It's not MY loss... but theirs.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
