"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.

Hi guys,

How do you handle social events where there maybe a group of girls together with the odd guy, e.g at a bar, work, social gathering etc and they just start all this boring girl talk about I like your handbag or your make up is nice where did you get it? etc. I just walk away can't be bothered with all that crap. Then of course they start on you don't they, either good or bad. I had this rather large women tell me I should wear more colourful clothes, I could see it coming. Just kept thinking don't lecture me, get on a diet. Of course I never said anything, but I do feel those situations embarasing and where do they get their high opinions?. I am often suprised about how some damm ugly women think they are gorgeous.
 

"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.

I'd turn on the a$$hole sarcastic switch... and no, its not lowering yourself to their level, it's subtly telling them, "listen, if you want to talk to me, have something important to say"

fatty: You need to wear more colorful clothes
You: No, the last thing i want to look like is lollipop around you.

Was the woman who told you to wear more colorful clothes being mean about it?

Not to be disrespectful kontroller, but does it really matter whether she was mean about it or not?

I look at it this way, if one of your guy friends said that to you; because you have no intention of bedding him, you automaticaly don't give a damn; then you throw it back into his face for the fun of it.

Now, in the given situation, there a 'large' woman, whom i hope the OP doesn't have a sexual interest in, therefore he should treat her as another guy, regardless of how she said it.

and if she can't take a joke, fuvk her.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

telling you to wear colorful clothes is not an insult

they are trying to make conversation, they have no idea that you don't care about anything that enters their minds.
perhaps you should tell them.

Luckily, I do my best to avoid being in a group of women for too long. I learned that in high school.

Actually, I usually hang out with a few guys in the group, and I start talking about "guy" stuff in front of the women. It'll usually stop them. Either that, or I make fun of them - copying them. Yeah, it's stupid, but it seems to work pretty well.

If you don't like female company, I think you're on the wrong message board. :D
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Join in the conversation and make it interesting. Just don't become another girl pal. If you have no interest in the chicks at hand you can always stray.

yes I just make an excuse to wonder off. I don't mind a bit of all that girly talk, but after a while it gets on my nerves.

why are you guys being so sensitive to women. In all honesty its making me want to sh!t out all my testosterone. Who give a flying duck what they are talking about, tell the large one to have a donut and you lead the convo.

Girl1: blah balh
girl 2: bla blah balh
large: colorful clothes blah albh
you: you girls are boring, is that all you talk about.
girls: yes, because blah balh
you: my beer is going sour the more i listen to this, hwo are your beers

I wonder what would happen if you were to say actually I don't like your clothes you look fat.. Men don't tend to do that but I have known women to be cutting (maybe the bytch test?).

When they start talking about appearances I think you could be on dodgy grounds because what you say or have them they say to you could get personal so I tend not to comment. I don't like attention it reminds me of those embarassing days as a school boy when someone may say at a party look at Johnny he looks so cute and everyone at the party would smile or my aunty would say who is this handsome man right in front everyone and start fussing around me.

That is true Jeremy...but the only time you should be on dogy grounds is with YOUR WOMAN, not just any woman.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

yes you are right I was thinking in terms of family, friends, work associates etc.. Actually on some occasions I do like to compliment people but I don't do often and therefore when I say something people respect my opinion. I don't say things for the sake of it or just to make conversation which is typically the scenario above.

My sister had put on weight a few years ago and was a regular at a coffee shop and the lady behind the counter said "I'm so happy for you when is the baby due"- I'm still laughing now, needless to say she didn't go in there for a while!
