"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.

Should I pull back?

I've been seeing this chick for 2 months. She has been very touchy feely since date #2 and shows lots of interest. I normally always reciprocate only since she always lays it out there.
She is on vacation with her immediate family this week and a week ago she said "I'm going to miss you" when I'm on vacation. I played it off a little bit without actually saying that I would miss her too. She seemed a little weird after that and later said that she was concerned that I didn't come back with me saying that I would miss her too.


I'm also spinning 3 other plates so this vacation week is perfect for that. However, I've noticed that she hasn't been as active initiating texts/calls like she was. I understand she is in vacation, but even when I've talked to her on the phone she is always having side conversations with the people around her and just acts sidetracked. Today I just about said "hey I'm at work, so if you arent busy I'll talk to you but if you're busy with convos with everyone around you call me later. It's not fun getting interrupted by people who you are going to be around the rest of the week". Instead I just told her that she seemed busy and to call me later if she got free.

I'm a little cold with women to begin with and I don't get all emotional like the average guy. Reason is my divorce and recent breakup several months ago with a fiancé.. Sometimes good women think I'm just too cold hearted but I'm only very cautious.

Should I just pull back and start letting her initiate everything like I did in the beginning with this chick? I do think I have been initiating probably 50% over the past few weeks and before I was maybe 25%.

Thanks for the help brothers!
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

I would, if were you. It's a good opportunity to get some perspective. I like to use those times to think and reflect. I usually have breakthroughs, during those times, which help to strengthen my center.
