How does it feel?
"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.
Has anyone had a girlfriend/wife die...?

"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.

Teenage girlfriend die of acute leukemia 3 months after diagnosis. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I still get the guilts over being able to live the life she never did sometimes.
Doesn't really feel anyway sir. I guess it would matter on the time invested.
I knew a girl for two weeks or I dated her for two years equates to the emotional investment.
Death is an irrelevant topic since we are all born to do so.

The closest thing I had was a woman who was interested in dating me. I was somewhat intrigued by her as well, but I didn't pursue because she was a smoker. She was pretty and fun to chat with. I lost contact with her after I changed hangouts. Four years later, a mutual friend on Facebook (whom I was unaware of) posted that she had died of brain cancer.
When I was 20 I bought a newspaper in college and found a correction on an obituary for the girl I lost my virginity to. It said she was married and she was dead. I went straight to her wake. He told me she died of cervical cancer but I think she might of OD'd. Her dad remembered my name. He died of a broken heart within a year. They are buried together.
