"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.

she wanted me to meet her daughter on our first date, and i came up with an excuse, not to go.

now she wanted to introduce me to her friends/family on a 2nd date. i came up with an excuse, but this time it was a bad excuse not to go and it just came out badly basically.. she hung up on me and not returned my calls.

why does she keep wanting to bring other people do our dates?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

She's qualifying you though the use of her friends. She's going to begin wondering why you're avoiding the situation by using bad excuses.
 

"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.

I dated a woman who had me over to her sister's house with her entire family for a holiday dinner within the first month we were dating. I was having dinner with 8 of her family members (excluding children) and were fielding questions from all sides. It's a sink or swim situation.

She doesnt want to waste time on some guy that her daughter (the most important thing to her) won't get on with. Its a test! I'd imagine she's rather needy though if she's straight away at that. She probably hasn't even decided yet if she likes you herself as it doesnt sound like you and her have had many dates...

Why didn't you avoid it?! I mean its got to be awkward within the first month, the whole family know you are just a guy that is currently fvcking her with no strings attached, and they put you on the spot like that to see whether you qualify or weed you out. I would be tempted to just burst out and say " look all I am doing is just fvcking your daughter and spinning other plates on the side so deal with it. You don't need to know my future long term plans, so cut the bull**** and stop pretending you like me or pretend we have something in common".

Or better yet:

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Tons of free food while being the center of attention.

True, but it also allowed me to see the type of people who influences her. Trust me, I had my own set of questions that I asked them about her.
