"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.

How to keep the romance in 30s?

Just had a question maybe some older guys can answer.

Wondering how you keep the romance in the relationship when you are older? Once the girl is past a certain age I always think I can be a little more combative, argumentative, and meaner in the relationship. Not that I want to be but my thinking is her sexual market value is getting lower by the hour while mine is likely increasing. How do you get away from this thinking? It's hurt me a bit over the past few months.

It's not like when you are teenager or early 20s you will drive across the state or do anything for her because your value is low and hers is high. Now I have so much trouble doing anything romantic, as I think she should be so lucky for me to invest anything in her if she is above a certain age.

Any insight appreciated.
 

"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.

I'm 40 and have been with my gf for 2 years. She is 41. Like you I don't like the romantic crap. I'm typically about 15% nice guy and 85% a##hole as she calls it. You don't want to be nice guy all the time but you do have to once in a while. If you are wondering if women mature as they get older, I honestly can't tell you for sure if they do. As they get older their heads get bigger and they get more stubborn, that I can tell ya.
