Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
Cada quien habla como le fue en la feria. 99% of cases it might be a bad idea to give her your whole paycheck.
OH HELL NO. Don't EVER do that! Unless she happens to be a CPA and she has signed an agreement with legal binding on what "misappropriation of funds* means! I didn't know this ever WAS the norm! It certainly wasn't anywhere I had my eyes turned.
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.
women holding the purse works in some situations. i think Travel is associated with Philippines.... In that case it is really common for the working class to have the wife hold the purse. due to no real social safety net, money flows a little differently than in places that have strong social net.
Appreciate the clarity. That makes sense. Ideally, that would be really nice to trust financial stewardship so I could focus on maximizing flow into the ability for accounting. I could probably trust my current LTR with it, but she's content with knowing I'm not going to do that. I think the best indicator on what I've got going on is if I said "We're going to put all the earnings in this account and I want you to pay all the bills" she would do exactly that and also inform me about when it's done or if there was a hang up.
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.
That was me about 10 years ago. However, instead of discovering it later, I was the one racking up the debt.
