"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.

Think about it this way. Have you ever exchanged numbers with someone you sort of tolerate but don't really like, from work/college? It's happened to me. Not just females but "friends". They tell me we should hang out, etc or invite me to something.

Now, with such a person whose company you're not really keen on, you still have a tendency to try and let them down gently with excuses or not answer the calls/not call back. You can always blame it on being busy after.

Now contrast that thought with someone you really like. If you have a decent interest level, do you act that way towards them? I personally don't. If a good friend or a chick I like call me, I may not call back on that day, but I make a mental note and make sure I call them back, because subconsciously I know they have something to offer to me that I don't want to miss.
 

"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.
