"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 was talking with this girl, now i'm normally just a really sarcastic joker type... she jokingly says something about me probably not being the most romantic guy, I say something along the lines of "oh, sure I am"... then she puts me on the spot and says "ok, name a few romantic things you've done"...

Luckily I was on the phone and really did have to go so I was saved by the bell, but it really caught me off-guard... whats the best thing to say in that situation? Should I actually be telling her romantic things ive done for other girls in the past?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

Soz, used that same line before, mate. ;) That line of yours would have only worked on the really insecure girl. The confident ones would laugh at you and see right through you - see that you're just too insecure yourself to say yes or no.

Well she was joking so just joke back. I wouldn't read anything into it.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

bull****

its all about how you serve it.

Then again, a girl never had to ask me about that crap, they learn to judge me by my actions.
