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.
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.

Be patient and take it slow. The last thing you want to do is re-aggravate the injury or cause permanent damage. Get professional help if possible.
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
I didn't tear anything which is good. I just need to rest it up and lay off sports until it's fully healed. It's been getting better, I can go up stairs pain free now. Sometime during the summer I will start doing core and balance exercises.lookyoung said:What did the doc say? Did you tear anything?
I've tried a brace which hasn't helped much, not by the same company. Maybe I will try a knee wrap sometime.djSlvt said:@ op and Falcon. Search eBay for knee wrap. Products by BREGG are good, here is manufacturer website.
No guarantees that a knee wrap or brace will help you. It helped me for a small injury I had years ago. They're pretty cheap and worth a try, IMO.
