"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.

I am beginning to get good at picking up women. I like doing it, and I enjoy the sex but when the 'relationship' ends, as it will, I kind of feel slightly emotionally involved, kind of like the lesser pain of splitting from a girlfriend.

To give you an example, I met a girl from America in a bar, she was an exchange student, so I took her out for a few weeks, we had an awesome time, enjoyed her company, then she went back to America. I knew it was going to happen, so i'm not really sad or hurt, just feel a bit funny.

Recently I met another girl, took her out a few times, great sex, now i'm getting the old 'not answering my call bit, which is obviously blowing me out in the same way we blow girls out. Feel a bit weird about that too.

It's strange, on the one hand I don't want a serious relationship with these girls, and I want to sleep with lots of women, but at the same time I really like these girls and miss them when it's over...kind of.


Does anybody else feel like this?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Yeah, I get this way sometimes too. It usually doesn't happen to ONS, but if I invest any decent amount of time with a girl (like a couple of weeks) I do feel somewhat attached, especially after sex. It's best if you both know the situation and realize that it won't get past a certain point. Unfortunately for a few girls, I failed to give them the notice. I don't really have any solid advice, because I kind of suffer from this as well, what I usually do is replace the feelings with another girl.

That sounds completely normal to me. Why would you ever want to emotionally detach yourself from people you invest in?

Maybe your asking the wrong question. Emotional detachment is not glamorous by any means.

fonz, you make a very good point...how on earth are we to pick up all the women that we want to and not feel bad? or is this feeling a natural curse that goes with the game?
 

"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.

The question you really need to ask yourself is: Do you really want to be a PUA?
