"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.

Not sure how many have seen this but this guy definitely conducted himself very well as well as the reporter.
You could see the initial fear by the anchor woman and the reporter as he was approaching initially. But the guy got out his message effectively in a non-confrontational manner. He then told everyone that can relate that he has a family. I just felt this guy did a good and effective job at getting his communication across. It has nothing to do with girls but but I think he exemplifies how guys should conduct themselves and act. Be stern but fair.

 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Yup. Except for the surface contact part. That is not the problem. It's airborne and that's why his restaurant needs to limit seating...or close.

Yet you see alcohol, sanitizers, wipes sold out everywhere...

I'm not even allowed to sign my credit card receipts anymore. It's either contactless or they give me a new sanitized pen from the new jar...

I have no problem with people washing and sanitizing their hands more. It was a good idea before and will continue to be one. If people want to stop handshaking I'm all for it as well.

But it's not going to stop COVID. Only nature is going to do that I guess.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I'd better get my comment in here before a mod decides to lock this posting and future conversation within.

I'm glad this video was shared.
We are now in an era of normally only receiving one side of a story. The reporter deserves credit as well - for encouraging a point of view that didn't necessarily seem to mirror the news story narrative.
I miss the days when balanced reporting and journalism was the standard.
