"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.

Hey, i'm just kinda pissed cause every time a newbie posts something on here, he automatically gets the "Read the Bible".

The man is asking for your ADVICE, not your "read the bible dude".

All these guys want is a tip or two, Its pretty obvious where the bible is, thers a link at the top of the friggen page!!!

But yea, I think people need to stop using that as their posts. If you dont have a tip to give, dont post anything. Its better than useless info like "read the bible", a very obvoious thing. (assuming these newbies have EYES!)
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I tell the newbies to use a search first

that is actually good advice because it could teach you other things than the questions answer you said.

Easy way out? No. Way of the DJ? Yes.

People complain about the same thing that you have before because I remember the post. Next time you make a post do a search:D :D :D

I didn't even notice the bible link till about my 10th post... I had no clue what people were talking about until someone told me...

Maybe they should change the color to make it stand out more?

I also didn't realize the "The Bible" thing was a link... I was searching around the site looking for the bible.... and it was right infront of me...:eek:

Tell me this, 400 people make the exact same post because they did not take the f*cking time to read the bible, would you want to reply to every single one?. Everyone knows the answers in there, just the newbies are too freiking lazy to do any work. If we're not hard on them, they'll never take any freiking action and just cling to us like someone on a crutch, its when you get rid of that crutch when you become a whole person.

Ask yourself, how bad do you want to become a don juan?

This whole site is about SELF improvement, not others giving advice to you. Sure, we may help you through a situation, but the majority of it is you. The bible is a guide to help you understand what we're talking about, and the way things work. Not only will you get more out of our responses, but you'll also figure a lot of it out yourself if you read it.
 

"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.
