"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Man for some reason my parents are so strict. They weren't born from this country they form the carbiean and when I say their old school their old school. Like their gay cause I can't go anywhere like I've been only going to home, school, and school events which are gay. Like I only go to parties with invitations so if it's like a spur of the moment thing like my parents won't let me go. What should I do to let my parents less strict should I wait till I get a car and it'll be easy to say oh I'm going so and so and I don't need you for a ride since I have a car or should I do something about it now. What would you say to your parents to confront them. They won't even let me get a job. I am doing kind of bad in school. Come to think about it my parents are crazy. They won't let me date, hang out with friends, won't let me hang out pass 1 o clock with MY COUSINS, and always asking stupid ass questions. My father got mad when I started signing up for college questionares for more info and ask if a college in Washington or something sent me a scholarrship would I go ( Live in NY) I said yes and he said no way wtf. Like I hate being the ****in first child. Man had to rant a bit since I missed this celebration party for this game at school. Thanks for anyone who actually takes the time to read and listin thx in advance now off to my boring as life
 

"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 complaining you lame pathetic child, organize your time and prove your responsibility and they'll let you go to parties. Don't call your parents gay... dispense with the insult 'gay' entirely, or I'll dislike you.

Put up with it until you are man enough to move out, take care of yourself and live by your own rules.

Well, first bring up those grades. You shouldn't be allowed to go out whereever you want if your grades aren't good. Once that is settled, along with anything else in your life that you should be doing that you aren't, then try talking to your parents, saying you need more freedom. If it doesn't work then either just wait until you get your license, or try getting another, more understanding adult to talk to them (relative, counselor, family friend, whatever).
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

you say they do not like you going to partys with out invitations, wow that must suck since 90% of of partys you do not get a formal invitation your freind just asks you to come along.

But did it never cross your mind that if an invitation is what your parents want to see, an invitiation is what they shall see!

come on use some creativity how hard is it to go on to microsoft publisher and write up a fake invitation as if you have been formaly invited, it will take you like 10 minutes, then just print it out and show your parents.

Sounds like you have to earn trust from them.

In any case, there is nothing you can do, you are 16. They control your life until you are 18. If i were you i'd use all my free time to excersize/bring my grades up.
