"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 met this girl online, and we dated once.

anyway, i call her up to hangout, and she starts being unresponsive, and she hangs up on me. so im like, okay whatever, im nexting her. cos she's not interested it seems.

then she pm's me today saying that her "phone is having technical difficulties" which is bull****.

wtf is she doing, seems like she's playing games. it is getting me alittle turned on tho. what would you do?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

mate, if a girl is playing mind games with you, next her and leave her to play her games on herself, you have more chance by ignoring her stupid games and show her you have better things to do with your time (which i hope you have)

You know, sometimes you need a challenge.

But if you don't know how to play the game here, then she might turn you into an AFC.

Like when she hung up on you. I would have hung up on her when she called back saying it was technical. My excuse would have been the same as hers.
 

"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.

Its also possible that her phone was having technical difficulties... Obviously if this stuff becomes a trend then I'd immediate next.

I just had that sort of conversation this week. Talking with this girl and for the life of me I couldn't understand what she was saying because her cellphone had crappy coverage and then she cut out on me. There was no problem just crappy reception.
