"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.

I'm lying in bed with my girlfriend and she's telling me how one of her male colleagues (whom I know) wants her bad. How he stares at her a$$ constantly, once touched her a$$ on a work drinks do and he texts her and even asks to meet up. She asks if I am jealous. She goes on to say he is good looking then says very good looking and that he is very intelligent. She also shows me the whats app messages between them. This is one he sent her: Image from http://weknowmemes.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/ur26c-say-it-fast.jpg.

The first question that springs to mind is why is she telling me this?
 

"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.

This. Just don't give her the idea that you're TRYING to not care. You need to genuinely come across as just not caring, if she thinks you care too much or you try too hard to not care it's a negative in either case.

$300 on C. This is 2015, writing off blatant disrespect to your face re: other men as a "sh1t test" is woefully naive. I would dump her, I don't fvck with this anymore. Plus you should have dumped her by now anyway based on your past threads about her. http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?t=224207

Yes. I agree.

Great job! Her calling you names, will only give you reassurance that you made the right decision.

Its usually a bad sign when a woman (for lack of a better word) brings up another guys name. It has always ended in disaster in just about every case I've ever seen. Glad you hit the eject button before she did. Good job soldier :up: now go out there and screen better next time.

Exactly.

Sylvester, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you admit to enjoying BPD chicks some time back? If so, I understand, hard as it may be to admit, I too like to get tangled up with girls who are a bit unstable, but there's often a price to pay - a precipitous one at that, all too often - and here it is ...cash, check, or credit card???

I fully accept that occasional sh1t tests are to be expected from a woman you're dating, but flagrant disrespect? Pair's right - completely unacceptable. What's next? He 'accidentally' sends a pic of his c0ck which she later shows to you? "Sylverster, look! Ugh! Can't believe he did that!"

She will show you whatever you want after you dumped her. Don't believe her for a moment. She probably blocked him a minute ago just to show you and make you regret.
 

"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.

Yeah she blocked him and made me watch her do it saying 'everything's alright now?'

Oh wow, that was fast! Good move. Of course she's pissed - you just threw a monkey wrench in her little love triangle.

And here I thought I was going to have to read through 5 pages of denial before anything was done.

Good job Sylvester!

Yup I did say that. But the drama is more than I'm wiling to bear. As an afc I would have mistaken this tension for love but not no more.

I mean who tells their boyfriend about their colleague is hitting on them and continues to keep in contact with them? Surely a good girlfriend would tell him to stop contacting her outside of work.
 

"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.

She's in absolute tears. An hour before our valentines meal was scheduled. She's literally clinging onto me and begging me not to dump her saying she doesn't want to live without me swearing blind nothing happened with this guy.

I'm just lying here with her blubbing on top of me. This isn't easy.

Honestly you are too old for these childish games as many have said.
If a Co worker is doing that WHY not call sexual harassment ? Unless she enjoys it ( Which I think she does )
And to purposely rub it in your face just to get a reaction & so she can call you insecure is plain stupid. Good call breaking up , I don't approve on V day but hey your call.

Next time ask your self , does BEYONCE go to Jay Z and tell him Kanye is rubbing her ass ?

:crackup: :crackup: OMG, She's ****ing hilarious, hahaha.

Some girls are just insane.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
