"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.

Do any of you see a difference between:

"I love you"

and

"Love you"

Do you think " I love you" has more meaning than "Love you"?

Would it bother you if your girlfriend mostly said "Love you", as opposed to "I love you"? Would it be of any concern to you?

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I agree with Omni. "Love you" or "Love ya" is less serious than "I love you", so be suspicious. I would go farther and make her say it first, then say the even less serious, "Me too".

Just as I said, things are too overly-analyzed around here. Most people don't even think about this stuff. I would be more concerned if she just said "me too" after you say it.
 

"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.

You should give her one "I love you" for every 10-20 she gives you anyway. If she says "love you" I'd stretch it to 30. SHE should be wondering if you love her as much as she loves you - NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!!!!!!

You're sounding a bit AFC, bro. No flame :)

If she's consistently avoiding saying the actual, total expected phrase, I smell a game being played

i agree with Omni too

is she at least saying the whole phrase while you are making love ?
