"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'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.
do you want to be a father? if not, did she know from the beginning you don't want a child?
are you 100% sure she is pregnant?
I plan on the paternity test, but pretty sure it's mine.
I don't love this girl, but I won't be a rat and abandon her.
So now am I stuck in a miserable relationship the rest of my life with a girl I don't love and a kid? Maybe I'll love the kid.
I want to be a father sure, but not with her.
I still should have worn a condom though.
So is it game over? I'll never find the love of my life?
Like I said, I can't just abandon the girl because I don't love her. I have morals. She does love me, but I don't love her.
"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.
Read my first post. She is against abortion. She will never do it. She would never give it away for adoption. She wants the damn kid. She's happy she's pregnant. She got me good. My only hope is the paternity test reveals it's not mine.
The one thing I will not do is marry her because of this.

Let that be a lesson to the rest of you, never trust a girl with the pills (she either forgets to take them or they don't end up working properly). Even if a girl says she will take the 48hr pill or do abortion, don;t believe her. She might change her mind when she will have to make that tough decision.
Even if you wear a condom I recommand to still pull it out before you ***.
If you don't love her, don't be with her despite if its your kid or not.
I guess you're right.
It's what the woman says goes. We have legislation making head way to states that women may have an abortion without asking for permission first from their husband/boyfriend, etc.
Screw child support, just split the time taking care of the child. There is no reason women should have more power in who gets to take care of the child over males. If she takes care of the baby full time and you just send checks and stop by time to time, she can influence the child into resenting her father.

about maybe ten years ago, i had a conversation with this guy who had a night stand with some girl... she got pregnant. she wanted to keep the baby. the guy explained to the girl that he would be there for the baby, but he wouldn't be there for her.
this is the same approach i'd take if i was in a similar situation. i know it sounds harsh, but in a complicated situaiton like this, it's best to be blunt/to the point. i would tell her, "i do not see myself being with you in the future. but what ever decision you make, i'll respect that. and i'll be there for the baby... but i'm not going to be there for you."
reminds me of something chris rock said in one of his stand up routines. i'll never forget this!
"If you get a girl pregnant, NEVER even consider mentioning abortion. don't even mention the first ****ing syllables. because if she decides to keep it, that baby will be six years old one day... and you'll ask your son how he's doing, and he'll say, "I'M ALIVE MOTHER****ER! THAT'S HOW I'M DOING! YOU WANTED ME DEAD! BUT LOOK AT ME! I'M ALIVE MOTHER****ER!"
So to avoid this type of drama, there's only two things you can say to a girl in this type of situation:
1) said in an AFC'ish type of way, "Oh baby, this is fantastic! I look forward to having this baby with you. Oh baby I loooove you!....
2) Look at her straight in the eyes seriously and say, "So what are you going to do?"
Oh man, that was classic! Funny yet so true

I've noticed that women are terrible at taking ANY kind of pills. Unless you live with the woman and see her take the pill each day, don't take her word for it. Put a rubber on.
If you don't have joined custody, you'll probably end up paying for child support. All your paycheques will have a chunk deducted off them (which is based on your gross, not your take-home) to care for said baby (and for the mother to spend however she sees fit). You have two choices:
1) Joined custody
2) Pay for the kid's needs, her makeup, her shoes, her new bf's birthday present, etc etc.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
