"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 might not actually be one single answer for this, but I was wondering:

If a girl is somewhat nervous around you (perhaps while you're going out with her for the first time), is that good, bad, or neither? I used to think it was good because it indicated that she recognized your high relative value. But I never was really sure.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

In my book, that is definitely good.

It might make it harder for you, 'cos it might make YOU more nervous, but it's better than that if she just acted "freely", because that would show she's not all that concerned about how she comes across to you -- ie, that your opinion of her is of little concern to her.

Of course, if she DOES act freely, that doesn't necessarily mean she's not into you, because maybe she's just a confident girl. (Then again, think about it, if she was with Brad Pitt you think she'd be a bit more nervous, right?)
