"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.

Hey guys,

This is my first post on this site, so bear with me.

Ok, so basically my buddy is dating a girl I really like, to make this easier we will call him Adam, and the girl Paula.

I am 16, in grade 11, and I'm an army reservist in the Canadian Armed Forces. Last year Paula liked both me, and Adam. However i had to leave the entire summer so i could complete my basic training. Adam and i came to the agreement that he would not ask her out so we both had a fair chance at getting her. 2 days after I left I recieved a letter from my best friend Derek, who also happens to be Paula's best friend, saying that Adam had asked her out and they are now dating.

still with me?

Basically he broke our agreement, and pissed me off. They are still dating now, and for awhile I had given up. I still really like her, so what i am going to do is attract her until the point where she likes me again. Right now they are going through a rough time, and will probably break up soon. This is why i need to start now, so when they do I will have a jump start on the other guys.

Now, i'm not looking for sex or anything, I want to have a relationship with this girl. I've had my share of quick dates or whatever you want to call them.

Anyway, what i need help is, how do I attract her? Not in a way that will get me a one night stand. The first time i attracted her was an accident, and i have no idea how it happened.

I realize I might come off sounding like a ****, but it's not like that. I would like to walk out of this with Paula as my girlfriend, and adam as a friend still. But if I have to give up one of them adam will be the first to go. Any tips on how to do this/how not to do this, would be greatly appreciated.

thanks,

Jack
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

You've already lost. You can't "want" a girl to be your girlfriend. She has to want YOU to be her boyfriend.

Other than that, a girl isn't worth screwing your friend over. He's already made a mistake by taking a girl over his friend. Keep yourself on a higher level and look for other girls.

I agree with WC2.

Your friend screwed you over. Doesn't mean that you should screw HIM over and steal his girlfriend.

There are plenty of other very pretty girls. Go for them

yea also just because things are not goin so great wit them doesnt mean there going to break up. Ive seen plently of ppl have "a rough time" in there relationship but doesnt break up. And agian like the other 2 said friends are more important than any girl and the girl isnt worth bein with if you have to make a choice between her and your friend.

yea man move on. I know that feeling, but the first rule of DJing you should know is-YOU CANT HAVE IT ALL.
Its all about numbers, the more you try, the more you get.
MOVE ON MAN
good luck fellow DJ. Well done for being in the army-you are a man
GIRLS LOVE A MAN(you get wat i mean)
 

"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.

Thanks for the replies guys.

You guys are totally right. I realize that I need to get over her. I knew that as soon as i read my letter. It's just a lot harder then expected, and it doesn't help that she is now pretty much my best friend, so i see her literally everyday.

I will do my best though. Is there anything here though that is kinda i guess a guideline for attracting women? I mean, I can fire a rifle, and do section attacks like nothing, but when it comes to women....I got nothing.

Zerotwoonenine, thanks for the support, it's sad, but over here in Canada there doesn't seem to be much support for the troops or the current mission in afghanistan. I know your British soldiers are over there too, hopefully the public there has a different outlook.
