"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

A firm handshake is perfectly fine with me.. Don't feel the need to be putting my arms around another dude!
However i notice, the man hug thing and hugging in general between men and woman in the workplace is definitely on the rise.

I think Vladimir Putin, has some guts to react in the way he did.
Most world leaders, would PLAY BALL from fear of accusations of being homophobic.

I give zero fuks about what Ukraine thinks.. I'm giving Putin some credit for THIS particular video, regarding, MAN HUGS.
No need to dig up Ukraine, that subject matter is totally unrelated..no point in getting all touchy about things bruv.

I can relate to Putin, we share the same personality type. INTJ
"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.

Not really, takes no guts at all. It's common knowledge that Putin is very homophobic, his reaction shouldn't come as a shock to anyone.

I reckon me and wifehunter, would react the same way.
I would defo AVOID man hugs, and extend my arm out for a hand shake instead.
Maybe we are homophobic
Does that include fat women too
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

On the other hand, nothing wrong with hugging a friend who's close to you, male or female. I don't hug male friends often but I see nothing wrong with it. Usually side-hug rather than front on, though.
I think the people who get all squeamish about hugging another man are usually the ones most likely to be repressing the fact they're gay, ha...
I'm confident that vaginas are my thing so it doesn't make me feel awkward. As long as you don't have a raging hard on there's absolutely nothing "gay" with giving a mate a casual hug/back pat, especially if they're depressed about something or feeling a bit s**t.
I think in appropriate context, hugs can communicate a friendly camaraderie that just chatting or shaking hands can't.
In a romantic context, they're also an excellent way to build early physical rapport with a woman and show confidence. But those hugs feel very different to the quick friend-hugs you'd share with a bro.
If some of u r into bromance that's fine too but it ain't for me nor would I encourage feminine traits.
