"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 boyfriend dumped me about 10 days ago and yesterday he said he wants to get back together. The reason he gave when breaking up with me was:
1. I werent spending as much time with him as i use to (and this is kind of true, but only because he was less available and I didnt want to be the person that always worked around him)
2. he felt like the spark had gone for me, and I just werent interested in him anymore
3. I was moving on with my life (Recently been offered a new job that I was considering accpeting and also got new accreditations)
4. I had other commitments and he was a distraction for me, etc.

To finish off, he said that our relationship was over and that we could still be friends.

I really like this guy, and so I asked to give me a chanc to rectify things and he just went quiet on me so i left him to think about it. I never heard from him again for a few days, so I said I understood what his answer was, and that it was over, and I said I didnt want to be his friend and it was best if we had a clear break.

So, yesterday he drops me a stupid text saying he acted out of frustration and that he wanted to clear the air. I said it was a good idea for us to meet to clear the air, and that he really did hurt me alot, especially seeing as this came out of the blue, didnt even see it coming. We are going to be meeting up tomorrow to talk about this, but I feel really hurt and betrayed. He just worried himself in to a state and then called things off. I really like him, and I saw us having a future together, but his behaviour has changed a lot over the past couple of weeks, and I see the relationship as extremely unstable at the moment. If there were issues, he made no effort what so ever to try to rectify these and went straight in to dumping me. I cant be with a person like that.

Obviously this is my interpretation of the events, but i would appreciate some advice.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

My advice:

1. Learn when to use "weren't" and when to use "wasn't".
2. Don't ever post in this forum again.
3. Please never spawn children.

Please remove yourself from the dating pool. You are not qualified to be in an adult relationship.

Tell him I said to spin more plates. Sounds like he went AFC and then lashed out. As you are probably AFC as well as having a lower sexual market value than him, you're still on the fence about him. Sorry ya got dumped kiddo. Nobody likes to get dumped. As I would tell a guy...NEXT.

If there were issues, he made no effort what so ever to try to rectify these and went straight in to dumping me.. I cant be with a person like that.
can anyone spot what's wrong with this sentence? LOLOLOLOLOL
 

"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.

Some extremely harsh replies here, I don't get what the problem is? Her post isn't THAT unreasonable.

Or am I missing some history on this board from this poster or something?

If you feel uneasy with girls being around then how do you ever expect to get comfortable building relationships / picking them up / etc?

I just don't get this forum sometimes.

To the OP, I'd cut things off. Once a couple split up once its rarely worth retrying, just move on to better things.

Then why waste a lot of effort on "second chances" and "trying to fix things"?

It might be healthy for you to talk to him and find out why he dumped you, just for your own knowledge. Very possible he found another woman. Also very possible he just got bored...maybe or maybe not your fault. Maybe you're just incompatible. I wouldn't beat yourself up over it.

I, too, am confused as to why you would choose THIS forum to ask for advice, though.

To me this seems like a case of a guy who needs you under his control, and when he saw you having your own life outside of him, he got very insecure. Not a good sign and I think you need to sit down and ask yourself what it is you exactly like about this giy....and if this is a man that could make you happy for an extended period. This almost seems like a case of you wanting something just because you can't have him. When he wants you, you seem to pull away. When he doesn't want you, you seem to gravitate towards him. Deep down I don't think you really are that attracted to the guy. If he is acting this way now, what is going to happen the further into the relationship that you two get? I remember you having issues with this guy a few months ago...major issues. And now he's acting like a little kid who if he doesn't get his way takes his ball and goes home?

I've seen your pic, you are an attractive women. You could do much better than this man. Good luck!

And btw to the people on this forum...ease up on her guys, this girl is alright. And some of you wonder why you have trouble with women lol? Act like a gentleman and you might have better luck.

Hah - I don't understand why some guys on this forum have to be @ssholes when a woman posts here. So she wants some perspective from qualified, enlightened DJs - who can blame her? :D

Cinamon, its obvious that this guy is having a rough time dealing with his emotions after breaking up with you. Dumping you then performing a 180 and saying he wants to go back is a sure sign of someone being driven solely by his emotional desires, and lacking of true sense of knowing what he wants. He is acting like a child.

I would predict that getting back with him would only lead to more drama as you struggle with this. Im not sure this relationship is stable in the long run. Like I would tell any guy on here, seriously re-evaluate what you want from this man and think about NEXTing.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I think someone misplaced the address for LoveShack.

Was this the guy you were hiding the self-made porns from or the guy that had them?

Dont get back with somebody that dumps you, in the interests of self respect.

The reason he gave when breaking up with me was:
1. I werent spending as much time with him as i use to (and this is kind of true, but only because he was less available and I didnt want to be the person that always worked around him)

2. he felt like the spark had gone for me, and I just werent interested in him anymore
3. I was moving on with my life (Recently been offered a new job that I was considering accpeting and also got new accreditations)
4. I had other commitments and he was a distraction for me, etc.
Your boyfriend is a *****, and did all this to get your attention because he is insecure and weak.

To finish off, he said that our relationship was over and that we could still be friends.
Another reason he is a *****.

I really like this guy, and so I asked to give me a chance to rectify things...
You shouldnt have said that, you should have shrugged and said 'okay, well its your loss.'

and he just went quiet on me so i left him to think about it.
He went quiet to make you think and stress about it, and evidently it has worked wonders.

I never heard from him again for a few days, so I said I understood what his answer was, and that it was over, and I said I didnt want to be his friend and it was best if we had a clear break.
You should have said nothing, and gone out with your girls and had a good time meeting new guys.

So, yesterday he drops me a stupid text saying he acted out of frustration and that he wanted to clear the air.
You are your his girlfriend not an emotional tampon, further evidence he is a *****.

I said it was a good idea for us to meet to clear the air, and that he really did hurt me alot, especially seeing as this came out of the blue, didnt even see it coming.
You should have said nothing, and moved on, that would have made you feel better quicker and plus you've given the frame to him by admitting he upset you.

We are going to be meeting up tomorrow to talk about this, but I feel really hurt and betrayed.
So why are you going? You shouldn't. Because even if you do get back together, nothing will be the same again.

He just worried himself in to a state and then called things off.
*****.

I really like him, and I saw us having a future together, but his behaviour has changed a lot over the past couple of weeks, and I see the relationship as extremely unstable at the moment.
Is it really worth the hassle? Its going to end anyway, better you hold your ground and retain dignity rather than running back when he realises his error.

If there were issues, he made no effort what so ever to try to rectify these and went straight in to dumping me. I cant be with a person like that.
Sounds like he had the right idea. And your beginning to develop it aswell.

Obviously this is my interpretation of the events, but i would appreciate some advice.

all together now sosuave......

She IS hot, and from what I see, has the mindset of a guy. I think the "other" guy is intimidated. He sounds like he's a bit needy. Straighten his a$$ out Cinamon. Personally, I love hot women who also have a life of their own... and not always whining about needing more attention. Tough decision.

Thanks for the advice guys. I think Todays news is right, things wont be the same again even if we did get back together.

For the guys who wonder why I am posting here: I believe in Karma, what goes round will come round, and generally like to bounce idea's of from the forum here, cause it gives me an idea as to how my other half or date is likely to respond then.

Ultimately most of us women are *****es, and the advice we give one another isnt necesarily in the other persons best interest, so i prefer seeking advice/guidance here, from guys, and like wise am happy to give my opinion if someone wants a womans advice.

Thanks for the compliments Cordon and Joe, but I would say I am average looking, but make up for it with my personality and thirst for adventure!

And what would be the advantage of a harsh response, over general advice?

More to the point, what is the point of your post brah?

Even more acutely to the point, why did you feel the need to even post if thats your view?

Some straight up women haters in here, its so pitiful and sad to see...
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
