"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.

Ok looks like Ill be moving to Atlanta in the next month. Somewhere in the Alpharetta vicinity. Anybody know anything about Atl from a mature DJ standpoint? Good places, places to aviod, general attitudes and such? Last time I was there all the girls I talked to were pretty open and friendly. Wierd thing was after I mentioned what I did for a living most of them said something to the effect of "wow, you must make pretty good money then.." Kinda off putting in a golddigger sort of way. None of them seemed the type and I can usually tell. Mature DJs in Atl and from there speak up.
Searched the wingman forum and got basically zip. Im posting here cause Im not looking for "dude I go to xxxx high, we should hang out sometime.."
 

"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.

dude, if i was stuck in america like you are i would chill with high school guys before i dealt with guys your age. nothing more depressing than to be 30, male, and living in the usa. at least high school guys feel that the world is theirs. a little more uplifting than hanging around 30 year old men who are filled with self doubt and pity.

It's a rough tough game for the American males in the early 30s. Being one, I won't deny that at all.. I have learned that the only way to win this struggle is to fight back.. I am doing that by bulking up at the gym and following the guidance of this site.. :box: I would love to know more about why our generation is like it is, though.... I have some theories but would like to hear some others comment first..

Really? I had no idea. I am surpised that anyone would think this way. My life gets better every year. Everything is what you make of it.

Holy crap. Uh thanks, you guys are awesome. Go bitcch around on your own thread.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I lived in Atlanta several years and moved away eight years ago, so take that in to account when reading. Alpharetta is a far northern 'burb of Atlanta. If it's anything like Roswell it's conservative and family-oriented, so you may have to go to Atlanta for nightlife.

What kind of scene do you like? If you want to be in the center of the action go to Buckhead, but by the time I turned 26 it had lost most of its appeal. Check out Virginia Highlands, there's a pretty good nightlife especially if you like blues clubs. Still fun, but more mellow than Buckhead. Little Five Points was a nice alternative scene, not sure if it still is.

Atlanta has a ton of transplants. Be prepared to have several groups of friends as people often move out as quickly as they moved in.
