"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Every time I'm close to dating/getting with a new girl, even If i don't want them for a ltr, when i see sure signs of them liking me and being interested I get anxious and depressed about being committed to them. This happens even when I'm only in it for the hookup and I've made that very clear to them. Also when i begin to like a girl i get freaked out about it and my attraction/feelings towards her shut off and I'm just left feeling depressed about it. This has been frustrating me for a long time and I'm sick of it ruining so many potential relationships and hook ups, what can I do about dealing with this and stopping it from happening?
 

"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.

Can you break this one down a little bit further? I can't fully understand what your troubles are.

Basically every time I'm beginning to think i like a girl i freak out and subconsciously shut myself off towards her completely, which i think might be due to a fear of oneitus. Also I've had what i think is commitment phobia for as long as i can remember which just makes things worse.

Damn, some problem you got there. Did you ever get laid?

"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.
