"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 have been with my current GF for about a year now. We live together now and get along great. Sex is fantastic and she treats me well.

The only problem is that I never see her. She works in real estate and is at the office at least 10-12 hours a day, 6 days a week. Her company treats her like crap, and she is terribly underpaid, but she believes she can't find anything better. A typical work day for her is to work an extra 2 hours and then have drinks with her work buddies for another hour or so. This leads me to the following conclusions...

1. She does not believe in herself.
2. She enjoys getting treated poorly.
3. Spending time with me is not very important.
4. She may be cheating on me. (Unlikely, but I would be blind to not consider it)

Ever since I found this forum, I have done my best not to be needy or overly sensitive, but this sh!t is affecting me bigtime. We have had numerous discussions about this, but nothing is changing.

If I do leave her, I will be forced to live with my parents for a while, so that's a bummer. But I don't think I can continue like this.

Please tell me, am I being utterly stupid?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I think you need to start exploring some other options. Do it carefully. Somewhat quietly. Start focusing on yourself a little bit. Now is the prefect time to take up those swing dance lessons you always wanted to try.

She will either sense this distance, and respond, or she will not. If not it means you are increasingly losing her interest or have lost it.

The nice thing about this is that it both deals with the problem with her (her lack of attention) and deals with the problem with you (your lack of other options).

Go out. Get around.

Stop discussing this issue. Sounds like you've talked it to death. Start doing something.

how old are you?

If you are unhappy, i would just take the highroad and move the hell out. I wouldnt even tell her, id just be gone in 60 seconds. I would do this if this has been going on for awhile.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
