"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 was hanging out with a buddy that I hadn't seen in awhile. He started dating this girl about a year ago that seems incredibly superficial, fake, and frankly obnoxious. He is in love with her but I saw her treat him awfully for an entire day. Should I say anything to him?

I watched her do the following:
  • Tell him what food he could and couldn't eat
  • Make him text her every 5 min we were at the bar watching the Yankees / Astros game to tell her what the score and inning was so that she could verify he was actually watching the game
  • Force him to leave at 8 because she started 'feeling sick' and he needed to prioritize taking care of her
  • Berate him over text for all kinds of random bs
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Nothing because he wouldn't listen anyway. The only way he will learn is when he gets dumped
