"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.

It is very difficult to find a person that is comfortable in their own skin. A lot of men are so inherently insecure so that they cant have genuine friendships. So lets give women a break. Finding a man ( or woman) that is well adjusted is difficult.

I am middle aged and 50% of my small friend group are great. Ive known these guys since I was in my early 20s. Many are richer than me, cooler than me, have families etc but I genuinely love them. They inspire me and I would do anything for them.

The other 50% are insecure and are snakes in the grass.

I really don't have much to be envious about but some people still find a way to secretly envy you. The envy leaks out in weird ways. You can tell when someone is not really your friend. Its a palpable ackwardness in the interactions.

I understand why women don't respect men. Its because we are not much better than women.
 

"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.

You can spot the vibe a mile away and the way to diffuse it is to be humble and talk stories about an unfortunate event happening to you and a general discontentment about life. Just vibe with them and relate according to their situation.
