"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yeah, i think what Ease and some of you others is true. I was being dumb/ insecure. Whatever moving on. I'll remeber this situation and act differently next time. This girl really loves me and there is really no chance of her breaking up with me as i usually am very confident/ dominant/ not being jealous in the least. She is not a slut and actually would never cheat on me in our current situation. I guess i just don't like it that she looking for that type of attention from guys.
I think its rooted in the fact that she's really good friends with two of my really good friends, like texting them all the time, which i talked about in a different thread. I've been more jealousish lately for some reason. Anyway, got to get my head straight. I'm thinking about dumping her to work on myself some. I told her yesterday that i didn't love her like i thought I did, that i had said it too early and i dont think i actually love her. She said she still loved me and was alright with the fact that I'm not in love with her. We're still together. Any thoughts? Maybe i'm just writing my thoughts down
 

"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.

"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.

Hey i read the whole thread but near the end i think you just got a bit repetitive. I think you need to just calm down and relax because you keep saying the same stuff over and over again in your posts.
