"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.

Alright, if anybody saw my last couple of posts....that girl has agreed to go to prom with me.

I've been pretty AFC since she said she could go (which was today....yesterday she said she had to ask her mom lol). Then she asked me if I was buying both of the tickets, AND I SAID YES!!!!! ARRRGH. Why would I do that? oh well, that's done with. Now, she says that her parents want to meet me. She gave me her number today, and said to call her at 5. Obviously, I'm not gonna call at 5, but I guess I'll call tonight....

Anyway, any words of advice? I need to meet these parents as soon as possible, I suppose, but I have a feeling this could go very badly for me...
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Should I just call and try to get her out of the house first, then maybe meet the parents later?

I think some of the DJ's in the highschool forum could offer better advice.

The one thing that comes to mind though, is you need to be more confident.

My experience has been when you go into something with an attitude like "I don't wanna mess this up..." you usually do.

You're playing not to lose, when you should be playing to win.

Stop overthinking it and relax.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yeah, thanks. You guys are right, of course...I'm just worried about one awkward phone convo I guess.

It's good to hear you got a date for prom man.

Parents are hella easy to please. Just shake their hand, give em small-talk, make them think you're a "nice young man" or w/e. I've never had problems impressing parents.

Are you really only nervous about parents?

First off, no big deal about payin for the prom ticket, its a small price to pay for not going stag. Secondly and more importantly, don't worry about the parents. Just be yourself, they'll just have a few questions for you. Unless you come across as a total jerk driving a muscle car, they're not going to stop her from going on the date at the 11th hour.

If you are the total jerk driving the muscle car, then you wouldn't be hear asking.

So just do it and don't worry. Have fun man, you only have one prom night and don't worry about having to seal the deal, just have fun.
