"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.

Btw, you can have your testosterone level tested with a cheap home kit that you mail in to a lab. You just give a saliva sample in a vile. I think if you go to a doctor to have it done, it's going to cost a lot of money.

"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.

Doctor put me on Testim 1%, 50mg every night at bedtime. It's a gel I rub into my shoulders and upper arms, and he wants to check my blood again in 2 months. I'm on it almost a week now. Don't really feel any different yet, that I notice anyway. Any idea how long before I start noticing a difference in how I feel? I'm referring to aggressiveness, self-confidence, competitiveness, etc. The typical traits you attribute to a very masculine, ambitious male.

I just got a call from my doctor's office. My testosterone level was 198, and she said a normal level is between 241-827. So I made an appointment to come back in on 9/28 and my doctor will go over the different options that are available to me. I didn't think to ask when I still had the nurse on the phone if all the medication I'm on could be affecting my level of testosterone. I'm on 3 different antidepressants, 2 medications for high blood pressure, and another to treat my high triglycerides. I'll ask the doctor when I see him but I've been googling and have found some articles suggesting that testosterone increases the effectiveness of antidepressants.

One other thing, I saw something on the internet over the weekend that the length of a man's ring finger compared to his index finger is related to how much testosterone he was exposed to in the womb. Longer ring finger than index finger indicates more testosterone in the womb. Same size as or shorter than index finger indicates less testosterone. My index finger and ring finger are the same length.

I've always been very passive and a bit on the timid side. Huge mama's boy growing up and was raised by my mom and grandma (dad was there but pretty useless as far as a male role model goes). I never dated until I was about 22, didn't get my first car until I was 24, didn't get my first job until about 20, played no sports in school and was always quiet and withdrawn and to this day am very unsure of myself in unfamiliar situations. Does anyone here know enough about this (until I can talk to my doctor) to tell me how a testosterone level of 198 can affect a man?

You will not lose your hair until you are in your 80's! Maybe never.
You will always look and act younger than you are! How much younger do you look now?

Taking testosterone will help you with your depression by the way.
