"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"Compromise" is just a short way to describe two people making sacrifices. When I listed compromise as being an essential part of making a marriage work it is because the sacrifices MUST be mutual. If there is only one person making all the sacrifices it causes problems. Even if love is there, the one making all the sacrifices will find it a very difficult situation to live in.

My opinion is that marriages shouldn't need to "make a marriage work." If you're marrying someone, it should ALREADY be working.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Well, that's not how it goes. I had a phenomenal realtionship for 5 years...and I came very close to marrying him. We got along wonderfully and was very happy. In fact, we were so happy together that anyone around us couldn't help but smile...we just emitted incredible positive energy. We never hurt each other with words, never argued and never raised our voices or swore at each other...not even one time.

Even in a relationship like this, there was still issues and challenges that had to be sorted out and worked through. There will always be issues and challenges that pop up...but when you have a good, healthy relationship you are much better able to resolve them.

love is the thing that ppl named to give some reason for the necessity of fullfilment that the person "in love" needs to excuse his or her acts of stupidity and afczism.

I mean

it´s an excuse to dont take control of your life and give the responsability of this lack of discipline and focus to loooooove

there is no love thing.

if one women...stands out and I feel stronger or different for her over the others..then that is who I will choose or prefere to be with :)
