"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.

Why Do Women Keep Doing These Things?

So I walked up to this woman at a bookstore here in Philadelphia last Friday and made a move on her. I supposedly got her phone number. She told me her name was Pam. Called her yesterday afternoon. The phone rang. I got her voice mail. The woman on the phone not only sounded different, but said in her voice mail that her name was Liz. I wasn't exactly sure what to do, but I left a message and my phone number nonetheless. Now, I'm not exactly sure what's going on here, but rather than give me a wrong phone number, if this were the case here, why not just tell me you have a boyfriend?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

She didn't tell you that she had a boyfriend for the same reason she didn't tell you straight away that she wasn't interested in you.

Well, what's the difference - both are excuses and either one works.

And, this is actually pretty standard procedure for women in this country - so get used to it, lol.

Re:

I think I'm getting really fared up with American women and their attitudes and superficiality at this point. I've been dealing with this crap for almost 10 straight years now. I think I should start searching for women of other ethnicities.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

How could you possibly determine whether or not you're interested in a guy when you don't even yet know anything about him? Very stupid.
