"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.

I haven't talked to my ex in about 5 months. My Dad went to a funeral this weekend that happen to my ex gf's - ex husbands brother (he was shot).

My gf had a conversation with my Dad and mentioned she would stop by (my parents house) and see my Mom. I found that odd, because she never visited before. She lives about 45-50 min away. You think she's trying to fvck with my head.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Do you think you're reading too much into this? Isn't it too early to jumping to these conclusions?

Maybe she just wanted to talk about ...nothing?

She could just be entertaining the thought about coming by...

it's nothing man except a lot of talk.

Women talk a lot about this kind of sh#t.

Don't read anything into it.
 

"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.

What do I think?

I think you ought to move on.

The biggest affliction on this board are guys trying to get ex back, wondering what ex is doing, strategizing against the ex (revenge or pleading to again get them back). My stomach is turning from all of it.

Look, most women aren't smart enough to know what they're doing or to strategize anything. They'll dump you if they have a bad hair day, get together with someone because it felt good at the time, go on a Carribean trip and get an STD and/or pregnant because it felt like the thing to do at the time. No rhyme or reason, so don't try to figure anyone out, especially an ex.

I think the DJ site needs to have an entire message board or articles on why obsessing about the ex is absolutely no good.

Move on.

* Thugo's post on pining for a woman five years married was the sickest AFC thing I've ever seen ... and I've done some pretty bad AFC things in the past.

Did you miss something? The hour long complaint details in the middle?

I'd just ignore the comment that was passed through your Dad. Don't let words mess you up - only actions have any meaning.

Make this a situation if she actually shows up at door - until then its just idle banter.
