"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.

ok what is self-image actually? is it "the way you see yourself"? or something like that?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Yep...

Self image is the way you see yourself. It's the source of your every action. Bad self image results in bad action and good self image... you know the rest.

DjDreamer you're absolutely right. I just recently went through a phase like this where I kept thinking thoughts relating to self-doubt, and worse, I was justifying them to myself in my head. Meditation does wonders, man. Got that **** out of my system in no time.

rapsta, for more on self-image, I recommend reading Psycho-Cybernetics. It will teach you about what your self-image is, and further, if you choose to follow its outlined exercises, you can put things to action immediately.
