"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 havent seen anything on peacocking yet. i dont know if many of you do it. i myself do. a good place i found was thrift stores. i first found this out when i went to one in vegas called the attic. also i might go to hot topic to find some crazy things, sunglasses, rings, clothes etc. for example, marilyn manson. the key here is to stick out. if he didnt do all that he would just be another rocker. i.e you might just be another guy wearing gap banana republic. now when i go to clubs or bars, it seems like everyone is preppy. but i try and do the wildest things i can think of. it works for me. i try and think of the things that are good conversaiton starters and most of the time ill be approached,( i like your glasses, or necklace, or rings, or watch's, or what ever) girls are curious like cats. now i got this whole thing from mystery, who might wear seven watch's, platform shoes, eye liner, black fingernail polish, and a cowboy hat. "when girls go out they play groupie, so when you go out you have to play rockstar." this was something i read in mystery's book. so any more tips or usefull things please post.

"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.

WELL, Put:up:

I remember when everyone was trying to look good for a dance, they put button down shirts, polo, etc. Well, my friends and i put on some costumes (not a hallowin dance, in was in the summer). I was wearing a jailbreak outfit with a pink bilabong jacket. One was wearing this purple mesh shirt with purple pants, another a wierd ass shirt, another a wig and a trucker outfit, and the other........can't remember.

Good times

I have a shirt that is white with thick black stripes and very thin pink stripes. It looks really badass and grabs attention. I also have a very bright green/blue shirt that burns the retinas of all whose field of vision I enter. That definitley peacocks too. I notice people looking at me everywhere I go when I wear either one of those.

Since they're both button-up shirts I was thinking of adding a clip on tie (I have a few since they are part of the Geek Squad uniform) to them too, I might try it out some time.

Yeah i think a clip on tie would be kinda dope. but only if people could tell its a clip on. then when they say is that a clip on just say "yup, regular ties are over rated" i would fall out laughing.
 

"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.
