"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.

The Mature Man forum exists because it assumes that at a certain age your life assumes different perspectives and different challenges. You're most likely done with school and you've paid your dues at work and you've have almost two decades more to settle into your own skin than those in the high school forum. You've achieved some measure of success and are looking to move on from there. LTRs discussions are incidental to the MM forum because after a certain point in time most men decide to 'settle down' and need to retool their game.

On that note, I want to quash the mini-argument about how different LTRs are from STRs and ONSs. I tried to write a post a few months ago on strategic thinking in the dating game that never panned out, but the gist of it was that you can't go bass fishing with a tuna lure and expect success. If you're objective becomes different, so must be your tactical approach. Aside from that I think what Oxide and Francisco are trying to illustrate (and please let me know if I'm misinterpretting this) is that all success requires you to have your life and consequently the three Cs together. Who would disagree?

I think that an LTR forum might be a natural outgrowth of the DJ principles. Some guys naturally gravitate towards LTRs whereas others gravitate towards STRs and ONSs, but almost every man will seek an LTR at least once in their lifetime.

"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.
