"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

did you ever feel that you were in the middle of a transition, between a boy and a man?
I feel I'm at that point in my life.
I'm 17 and I'm taking a year out before I go to Uni to try and sort myself out.
I have no idea what I'm going to do at Uni, I have no idea who I am as a person or what I want to do with my life. I've been trying to gain meaning through philosophy; Christianity, Buddhism etc.I feel like crying as I write this, I just have no clue at all. I've tried numerous self-help books, websites etc.
What should I do?
 

"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.

being a man is simple, its making the tough choices in life, taking the high road when you can, and living with the consequences without blaming the world for your lot in life.

once you got that down then the other part to being a man is realizing that no one has all the answers and that the fun in life is pushing forward in search of new expereinces and answers.

there is no transitioning into manhood, there is a moment of awakening where you realize your life is yours, you are responsible for it, and that life is one big crazy ride that never fully makes sense.

another way you know you're officially a man is if you can say you live by what al pacino said in scareface:

"All i got in this life is my balls and my word and i don't break em for no one."

when you can deal with the uncertainties and stresses of life and not beat yourself up over them, you're a man.

a girl become woman when she learns how to master a man.

a boy becomes a man when he learns to master himself.

At 17 I had no clue either, man. Find something you like to do and then go after it 100% Whether it's a job or some kind of activity like martial arts or picking up women. Just take something you love and commit to becoming great at it.

You've really got the world by the balls right now because you have all the time in the world to get good at whatever you choose to do.

If you want you can PM me and we can trade emails. Maybe I can talk you through some of this stuff. I'm not an expert but I've crawled through some SERIOUS $HIT in this world and I'm doing OK for myself finally.......
