"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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Definitely buy her ticket, if you have enough money for the limo, go for it. If not, mention it ahead of time so she can get some money to pitch in.

if you want a relationship with her, then make it 50/50 or at least make her to pay for something because if you pay all for something expensive like limo, then she will treat you like a money bag.

Guys buy the girls tickets. It's not "AFC" or "Non-DJ", it's tradition. I highly doubt your date paid for her own ticket, Zero. If so, then she was very desperate.

Sounds fair to me.

If I was a 'prom kind of guy' I'd pay for the ticket, chip in 50/50 on the limo, maybe suprise the broad with something (cheap, but classy/creative of course)...

u pay for the ticket...our tickets are insanely priced- $225

she pays for pictures and corsage(i think they come in a set)
 

"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.
