"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 having a tough time finding a SOLID hobby/interest.

Right now, I work full-time doing sales/marketing. It sucks, but it allows me to go clubbing 4 nights a week. I'm out in the field a solid 4 nights a week, and I'm also part-time taking a marketing class. I also exercise 5 days a week.

So, this is my life:
- PUA (clubbing, shopping, girls)
- Sales/Marketing Job
- Marketing Student
- Exercise 5 days a week
- Write in journal

So, that's it. Pretty boring. I don't feel like a complete person, and I think it's hurting my game. My problem is finding a GOOD hobby that I enjoy. I love doing PU, it's an essential part of my life. I'm obsessed with it... and read about it and I'm trying to improve all the time. But I need something more. I need an identity. One of my friend is a DJ, hockey player... another a soccer play... another an artist... another a film producer. I want to be a promoter, but that isn't until 2 years in the future.

I've tried musical instruments, soccer, basketball, martial arts, and some other sports. But I can't find anything that just *clicks* and that I really enjoy.

I did computers for 5 years of my life, but dropped it because it's lame.

Can you guys recommend anything? Nothing like "i listen to music" or garbage like that.

Thanks
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Exercising is a pretty good hobby, although I see you already have that written down.

Here's some stuff I can think of:

Shooting pool, golf, swimming, cars, poker, carpentry, stocks, electronics, surfing (if you live by water), or studying some interesting subject (psychology, physics, philosophy, or stuff like that. My friend studies dreams). You could try things outdoors like camping or hiking and that kind of stuff. There's a lot out there, but that's about all I got, hope it helps.

By the way, what musical instruments did you try out? I played piano and I violin and I didn't like them, but then I picked up the french horn and I like it a lot.

i'm sort of in the same boat as you. i have no real hobby to spend some time on. just in the past couple days i've realized, the only way to find a hobby is to go out and try everything YOU look interested in. dont do something just because you think the girls will like it. so get out there and try something new..what do you have to lose?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"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.

you are trying to play sports that are games where the object is to score points. You say you like ot excersize 5 days a week so it would make more sense to try a sport where the emphasis is on speed and endurance and basicly getting fitter such as cycling swimming or running.

Perhaps try chess, or spades(card game). If you are in the US, there is a nationwide ranking system, and there are always clubs, etc. But maybe you don't want to meet geeks:). j/k

So is being an online Trekie/Treker, on just a Trekie, period. But do you really want to stop getting laid?

As stated before, musical instrument, any, even just learning how to sing good.

Learn a prop, palmistry, tarot, dream interpretation, handwriting analysis (my favorite).
 

"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.

I agree.... I can play bass and drums. Actually in the process of starting a band with a few friends. Women do seem to like guys who can play a musical instrument.
