"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.

"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 afford it? Do you enjoy it?

I've had years in my life where I'd eat at nice upscale places 1-3 times a week because I could afford it and enjoyed it. Either with friends or a woman. It didn't matter.

There is no too much or too litle if you enjoy it or don't and as long as you're not doing it just to "impress" her (what I used to do in my old days).

Dude if you're a college student like me, watch how many times you go out to eat. My gf is not too bad off and dines out a lot with her family. We started going out to eat and pretty decent places AT LEAST once per week. $30/meal times 2 is $60 PER WEEK. Times 4 is $240!!!! ON FOOD.

Pretty f*cked up. Anyway, I got sick of it eventually and told her that we're not going out too much anymore. She ends up paying a lot the time now, which is cool!

With my gf I keep it sparingly (maybe once a month) to keep her interested in it and to keep it special. When we go out to eat, its usually at very nice places probably $80 - 200$ price-range and its a whole big thing where we get dressed up and everything so she always appreciates it...

Like the other person stated, do what you want to do tho.
