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.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
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.
Oh crap. My wife exhibits all of these traits... and I avoid a lot of minor conflicts with her because of the way she handles things.DavenJuan said:Drama: any topic, discussion, scenerio, idea blown out of proportion to actual reality.
ways to reailze you are being a drama queen/causing drama..
if 15 minutes later you realize that whatever you were upset about was not as important or relevant to anything its considered DRAMA.
if you hate every single women that your bf/husband knows including his mother thats considered DRAMA
if your bf/husband avoids minor conflicts with you because of the way you handle things thats considered DRAMA
so how to avoid this..
FACTS UNKOWN.
there is no cure just medicine to minimize the damage...
SPIN PLATES
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
Took 9 replies, but at least someone got there.Warrior74 said:Your a woman. you already know what drama is. Stop playing games. And yall so called DJs on here...why are you even anwsering this crap?.

Relationship Drama.
Spinning plates and keeping your significant other off balance on purpose, or tending to back ups. The genuine man or woman with a shread of self confidence is going to bail upon realizing this.
Taking the ****y and funny thing too far. Enough to emotionally wound the other. When you cross that line, and you enjoy doing so, and they go for it. You are dealing with an insecurity. Tread carefully. I would recommend treading backwards for either.
Seek a healthy core of being and then attract a healthy partner. In that order.
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.

any behavior that is meant to evoke an emotional response with no relevance to resolving the issue at hand is DRAMA.kathy said:Ok men help us women to understand please. What things do you consider to be drama and what tips can you give us to not fall into this?
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
