A Faint Heart Wins No Fair Lady
The title refers to men who admire some ladies but are too timid to go forward and propose to them. Here are the steps to overcome the self-inflicted phobia and confidently approach the lady of your dreams and choice.
The origin is British Queen Elizabeth the First. An admirer, Sir Francis Drake, etched a window at court expressing his fear to declare his feelings, to which the Queen left her own etching, saying “Faint heart never won fair Lady”.
Once you come to terms with the reality or realm of being fundamentally human, you have a basis to relate to her.
How you present yourself will be important. You will doubly fail and alienate yourself if you dress shabbily, especially if you live or operate within her zone. If your pocket is not strong, your physical outlook might overturn that handicap in terms of boosting your confidence and creating common ground.
Yes, you can invite her to a social event where you may mingle in a crowd. Here, she won’t entertain the other fear of hunting her down because the setting is easy-going and general.
You may introduce surprises into the fledgling relationship. Do not bombard her. Get out of her way for some time. This could take up to six months for greater impact and returns. Remember absence makes the heart grow fonder. When you stage the comeback, be bold to invite her to one on one meetings or outings but discuss general matters, not about yourselves.
Keep the relations on this lighter orbit until one day against all expectations, you drop the bombshell ”I LOVE YOU”. It may or may not work but at this point, know that your internal mountain is surmounted.
