"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.

"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.
And of course a lot of dudes have to lean on the female, which is what much of this board can be about, leaning on the female, looking to her for strength, looking at her to give him purpose, and chucking the important stuff in order to try to get that from her full-time. Guilty.
But once a man realizes that doesn't work, (usually after being burned REALLY badly) he can flip it around and do things the right way.

Yo Kickureface,
The primary objectives behind this thread was to first point out the potential trap that awaits men who mistake simply the acquisition of strategies and tactics with the actual accomplishment of INTERNALIZING the core things that ultimately make a man truly become a BETTER man.
To reach this goal, we plan on posting reminders LIKE this one in the general discussion, the tips section, and other places just to keep the awareness that there should be HIGHER goals here than ONLY attracting the women we want into our lives------and one of them is becoming the kind of man who can KEEP them wanting to remain in our lives.
The right women are great and can be a most valuable asset in the lives of men, but they should only be a byproduct of a life filled with many other great achievements. But because this IS a dating site, we would be remiss if we did NOT address this subjects as frequently and specifically as we do.
But in addressing it, our goal is to also point out, evaluate, and FIX (if need be) the underlying issues that may impede us in our progress to obtain healthier and more fulfilling outlooks on women and relationships.
And Kickureface,
ONE way I'd suggest you continue to advance on your OWN path of continued development would be to seek out, read, and take the time to contemplate threads on Sosuave that get to "the crux" of a lot of our relationship/manhood issues as opposed to the ones that just skim the surface-------like the ones that are already listed in my signature lines below (that is, if you haven't read them already...).
And don't just stop THERE.
Many of the brave men and women who have posted in THIS very thread, I'm sure, have just as many threads that they've authored, OR ones that they'd like to recommend to the troops on here too-----threads that offer a more lasting solution to problems, and not just a "quick fix".
I only ask that those who do choose to get with this program of self-awareness, self-reflection, and self-improvement do so with an OPEN MIND.
If the things that we post or recommend ring true to you------take it to heart. But if the things that we post or recommend don't ring true to you----------leave it alone.
And if you find there are things that we post or recommend give you pause, or you take issue with, or you have questions about------then feel free to use them as FUEL to fire up a respectful DISCUSSION amongst all of us soldiers who are in the process of marching along the SAME path.
March on.

"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.

You are your Devil, but you are your Angel as well.
Whatever you resist, persists.
Whatever you embrace, you gain power to use.
The only REAL Help, is Self Help.
Do not wallow in Self Pity.

Everything you have EVER WANTED has actually been OUTSIDE of your COMFORT ZONE.
All your Life is simply a collection of your Expereinces, all your Experiences are simply your HABITS, and your (often Self Limiting) BELIEFS.
Gentlemen, I implore you.......
UNderstand that your Suffering is because of not what you LACK but because YOU are NOT MOVING Forward.
Yes, you do not SEE these things you want in your Life right now.
This DOES NOT MEAN you CANNOT Have them, or are not deserving of it!
But you must PUT YOURSELF in the SPACE READY TO RECEIVE THEM AND APPRECIATE THEM!!!
Do you understand??!!
Do you??
It is all your Mind Set!!
IF you believe ONLY in "I lack (insert object here) ", then you will ONLY "SEE" "Evidence" that YOU LACK!!
Your Goals are NOT WOMEN.
Your Goal is to IMPROVE your LIFE and Enrich your Experiences.......
..AND GET RID OF THOSE SELF LIMITING BELIEFS AND DESTRUCTIVE HABITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How can you EXPECT success when you are NOT taking steps to move forward??
"Character is DESTINY."
What is YOUR Destiny??!
Build your CHARACTER , gentlemen.
It ain't what some of you wanted to hear........but this is your Salvation.
Only you can do this for yourself.

Been meaning to bump this.
Please try to develop a "discerning mind", and learn new patterns to think about yourself, women, and the world.
(While I may not have too much free time at the moment I will try to answer your questions as best as I can.)
