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.
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.
Just make sure this thread doesn't get deleted toospeakeasy said:The poll about belief in God? Last I saw of it, there was nothing but interesting discussion, seriously, what was the point of deleting it??
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.
Fine, but it's not like I posted it in the dating tips forum either. Kinda sucks because there were some interesting things people were saying in response. I also recently had my thread on The Pickup Artist show shut down because it mentioned race, even though the discussion was completely civil and interesting and totally relevent to the world of pickup, like how to game black chics versus other chics. I just think the censoring is getting a little too heavy handed.Rollo Tomassi said:http://community.beliefnet.com/forumsindex
Here you go, take it here. It's not that we have anything against religion in particular, it's just not the focus of this forum.
Me too. I generally don't like forums where the mods go all 1984 on everything.speakeasy said:I just think the censoring is getting a little too heavy handed.
