"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.

Beyond your peripheral vision
I just came across this while browsing some local sites, and actually remembered reading about this in the NEWS last year (I am somewhat local to the area where it happened). So yes, this is a true story, not a scam. I remember getting teary eyed reading the paper, because it was just such a sad story. Reading what has happened since... well, I don't really even know what to say. Just help if you can, they aren't even asking a lot.

Click here.

I feel like this is a great place to post this, because who can't relate to what has happened here? I plan on posting in other places, but I feel like this forum is actually the best place for it.

If you want to make sure it is for real, just google the guy's name, the stories will come up, and the lady who is hosting the story is a realtor in the area where it happened, a family friend I believe. Part of me feels like it is no way to live, but it has only been a year, so who knows.

Thanks.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Done.

Sometimes we have to give back.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

Agreed, though there's some on the mature forum that will view us as being selfish....

Seriously, I remember reading about this story some time back. It's moving, and just goes to remind each one of us, to be thankful for what we have. To be grateful that we are well to enjoy life.
