"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.

My sisters ex, whom I have mad respect for is going down in flames on facebook and it's hard to watch. This is a guy who has always been the embodiment of alpha. I've watched him pull a large group of girls by himself. Now he is on facebook making a public spectacle of his college age gf dumping him, declaring his love for her and saying that he can't stand being without her. I want to say something to him but I'm still blown away by the fact he's acting like this. Would you say anything or just watch the train wreck ?
 

"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.

I'd say something to him. Pull the FB page up with him. Get him to read some of his posts out loud. Make him feel embarrassed, belittled and ashamed. Then he'll get angry with himself. Then he'll stop.

I'd sure as heck want one of my buds to haul me up. I mean, there's train wrecks then there's just getting a slight ding in your fender. Help him out.

Sometimes a guy can use this heartbroken routine to pull in a bunch of other chicks to "comfort" him. I'm not saying he isn't genuinely hurting, but if he's as alpha as you say he might make it work. I've seen this play out a number of times.

I'm not sure WHY it works exactly, you'd think it would make him look weak and beta. Maybe it's because women like to "fix" men, and they love the emotion. Sometimes they like to nurse the wounded male. Plus the fact that he had a girlfriend shows he has already been vetted.

This is actually pretty common. Some alphas find a girl that can send them beta in a heartbeat.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
