You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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 can't go to the gym because I wake up at 5 and come back at 7 in the evening and I'm too tired, if you read my last post from some time ago I'll explain what I'm going through in this period, unfortunately it's like this, I can't cheer myself up, i am too thoughtful, sad, i will try to start meditation again
Sounds like you are suffering from burnout from repeated stressors and not enough down time to be able to unwind and relax. I'm guessing you don't sleep enough either.
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.
Yes, perhaps work is wearing me down, I work in the principality of Monaco and it allows me to earn double what you would earn in my city, but it is 30 km from my home, plus it is physically tiring work, perhaps this is it
I know but I get a great salary, and I really need to make a lot of money right now
I know it's different in Europe but it's nothing to drive 60-80 km in the US between work and home. I'd say 30km is probably better than 65 percent of ppl do here
Yes, but in fact I'm not complaining, but obviously these are tiring days, and my discomfort could come from tiredness
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
