"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.

As we know, a good DJ should always be spinning multiple plates. The negative thing about having so many simultaneous projects in the works is that you're going to have to let go of some. Some of these girls are good girls who really like you, so you want to let them down easy.

I wanted to start a thread for us to bounce ideas of each other about how we can cut women loose with the least amount of pain. I'm not talking about fvck buddies or girls with whom you had a ONS. I'm talking about girls who truly wanted a serious LTR with you.
 

"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'll start with a tip of my own. It's not really groundbreaking or original, but I like to use the sandwich method. This is a pretty common strategy used to deliver bad news in a variety of different contexts.

Basically you sandwich the bad news in between two pleasant topics. So you open by telling the girl what an awesome person she is. Then you break the bad news that there's someone else. You tell her that if you didn't have this thing going with the other person, you'd love to date this girl. You then reassure her that she won't be on the market for long. If at all possible, you should try and set her up with a good friend of yours.

Make sure that you inject a little humor into it. She probably will be hurting, but laughter is a good medicine. Really try to reassure her that she won't be on the market for long. And if you can set her up with a friend, you're doing a good thing for two people you know.

If she's hot, why not? By the time they're in their 20s most chicks have banged god knows how many guys.

I don't want the hand downs from my friends. The fact that they f*cked how many dudes before me doesn't bother me, but the fact that my friend stuck his **** in there would bother me.
 

"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.
