"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.

Even though I'm married, I'm still the most important person in my life. My wife is very important, but she may not always be there in my life. She may leave, she may die, but I'll still be around.

However, I've had this in my mind for a while. What happens when I have kids? Am I still the most important person in my life? Well, yes and no. I still need to take care of myself because my children will rely on me for their needs. However, I cannot let my children fend for themselves. Between the time that they're born and the time they become legal adults, they will be just as important as myself in my life. Even though this is a brief period in my life, this will be a time when I'm not the only priority in my life.

Legally, I am devoted to taking care of my children and directing them in life. After they turn 18, that responsibility goes to them and they have to at least begin fending for themselves. They must establish themselves and become the most important person in their own lives.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Great post Bungo,
Definitely we must always handle our responsibilities and kids are definitely that.

At the same time, well I won't say anything on the marriage front as I have never been married but I agree when it comes to gf's and even fiances.

Glad to see your still here.
