"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.

Dancing with the Devil by the pale moonlight.
I'm beginning to come around after having experiencing the nightmare of my life. I need to find something to motivate me and inspire me that will help me be happy about life. It has to be something creative. Not liking joining a basketball league or something like that. I don't know what but I need to find something because I'm out of my daze but I'm still disallusioned about life.
 

"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.

Try taking some short courses in arts. I went through a whole lot of them before finding my passion (swing dancing).

Dear Darkstarr,
Depression is one Hell of a problem,very hard to kick it without help.....If you get any worse seek professional help.....Tokyo and Jitterbug have some good ideas.....try not to dwell on things,go out often,even just for a stroll round the shops...throw yourself into your work,looking after a pet can be very helpful....I have found that in affairs of the heart it is next to impossible to just forget an obsession,you can only transfer it and sublimate it in another...good luck.

I tutor at a nearby Middle School, 7th grade social studies. Those kids are so out of control it's just hilarious to watch the teacher have an aneurysm trying to get them to be quiet. It's helped me get out of my funk because I can connect to them and they are pretty needy kids (bad end of town)
