"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.

A while back my mrs finds out she;s caught clamidia - I caught the swirv ball and had no idea I had it myself. We both got treated - done, or so you'd think...

6 months on, and now she has gone an gotten a HIV test. She didnt discuss the decision with me first, and just went ahead and booked it. I thought this was selfish, seeing as the result affects not just her, but me too. Either way I support her decision.

anyway, she gets the results in the next couple of days. She;s got herself so hettup and is in a bad place thinking about it so much. We live together and she's acting real funny about it.

She's asked me to go if i'm free. I'm not sure whether I should go too, after typing this out, I think I need to go.

life's great isnt it....

any advice or thoughts??
 

"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.

How do you feel about her and your relationship? If you are still invested in making this relationship work and trying to overcome the problems of the past then go. If you are just waiting to find out if you are clean before you dump her...then still go or not go. You go because you WANT to.

Who cheated on who? When the chlamydia was discovered there should have been a thorough STD test done. Are you two in some kind of "open" relationship or something?

there has been no cheating - we were seperated for a few weeks over a year ago, and a different girlfriend gave it to me.

cannot totally blame this other girlfriend that gave it to me as I should have insisted we always use protection.

lesson learnt, unless you've both had a thorough STD test, keep that rubber on regardless of whether she's on the pill.

Unfortunately we only got tested for the normal STDs and not HIV. hence why we are here again a year later. should have got the full test at the time when it was offered.
 

"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.
