"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.

Do any of you have accounts on Friendster? I realize it's not an online dating website, but I wanted to get some opinions of people in my peer group (i.e., youse guyz).

Thanks.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Hi - I am on it but use it only to keep up with people I already know. I try to hit conversations with people but you're better off going on match.com (though some here may argue against that!).

Still, the message boards have many ideas and it's good only for entertainment.

Thanks for the input. I had gotten an invitation to join friendster from a girl who rejected me a year ago. WTF? When she rejected me, she said she still wanted to be friends with me, whatever that means.

Anyway, I was curious about the website and I've decided that joining it is a waste of my time. Besides, if Myspace has taken most of the people away from friendster, then that's even more reason to stay away.

Big Dawg, good to see you again. How goes thiings?
 

"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.
