"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's this HB in my classe, a 8.0 in my scale. I've already talked to her a few times, and so, today, I decided to check if she was OK with going out with me.

So, I checked her leaving English class, and went to her.

Me: Hey, your Maths teacher is missing, right?
Her: Yes. I hope she don't comes.
Me: Ehe... I don't really care, you know. I'm going home now, so it's only bad for you. (said this in a playful way, of course).

After this, and some fluff talk, she went away, and I realized I panicked and didn't ask her out.
I was like "Sh!t... I'm such a wuss..."

Anyways, a couple of minutes later, I saw her, and went up to her.

Me: So, guess you're going home too, since you're here.
Her: Yeah... My father is coming to pick me up.
Me: I see... Hey, listen, I got to go, but tomorrow night I'm going to the movies. Wanna come?
Her: I'm sorry. I won't be at home tomorrow because (apologised in a fluffy way)... Anyways, thanks.
Me: Ah, okay, it's fine. Well, bye.
Her: Bye.

Well... I got rejected, and my convo skills sucked, but anyways, I asked her out.

Btw, going to the movies is a sucky option, but it was the only available at the moment. Eh... lol.
 

"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.

rejection is good, shoots down your fears.

now to overcritisize everything you did...check to see if she was okay with going out with me? thats the root of why you got rejected...your additude. you did good telling her you were going and if she wanted to come along (although its best to use a phrase like come along/tag along) but you just said the movies...in some cities (including mine) movies are a place where the losers hangout and smoke cigs. a better line would be "i'm gonna go see a movie tommorow night...wanna tag along?"

however, you asked, she said no, you got rejected, your still alive. sarge on.

Actually, I speak portuguese, so what I said can't really relate 100% to what I wrote.
Well, as you said, I'm alive, and ready to another one. :rockon:
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
