"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.

It's the harridan that wrote "Marry Him". Here she describes her plight as being stuck in a romantic recession after a romantic asset bubble where her sexual market value was at too high of a level (i.e., having a seemingly endless supply of good men) so she didn't settle, but now she is stuck in having difficult time in finding a man to settle.

Some interesting comments as well.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

This is a well worn path that women have been gibbering about for ages....however what is interesting is that neo-liberal elite publications such as Atlantic and NPR have taken up the torch for female hand wringing. This is likely a sign that the negative effectives of female hypergamy is reaching the top of the pyramid..upshot for men? More wealthy, forlorn, alcoholic, yoga toned puzzy to pump and dump if you have the style and panache to pull it off.
