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.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
What on God's green earth are you talking about?Mr.Positive said:Guys, don't take this crap.
Now they have medications for phobias, such as fear of spiders?!? Come on. Enough is enough. There's so many damn meds out there, people are going to need meds to just deal with the basket full of meds they are taking...
You don't need medication for phobias. You need to kick yourself in the ass and cure the phobia. The old fashion way.
I don't understand why society pushes for medicating everything.
Grow some balls and heal the natural way. Don't take any prescribed shortcuts.
My two bits.
My apologizes Razor, I read through where it said "no medications come close" and just disregarded it as another crutch people grab to solve their problems.RazorAzoth said:What on God's green earth are you talking about?
It's an MP3 file you listen to and it works as a pattern interrupt (see: NLP) for your brain's computer to change bad thoughts and emotions.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
What? What happened with "Grow some balls and heal the natural way. Don't take any prescribed shortcuts."? The first post kicked much ass but this one you made looks like it contradicts your first.Mr.Positive said:My apologizes Razor, I read through where it said "no medications come close" and just disregarded it as another crutch people grab to solve their problems.
If it's just an MP3 file at least it's not affecting anyone physically. Maybe this thing has merit. If you try it, let us know!
