"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.

I've been doing a pretty good job weeding out the uninterested types, so I think I know where this is headed....

But I texted a girl telling her to let me know which days she's free in the coming days so that we can get a drink. She said "yes let's get a drink!" but didn't give me a day she's free.

Two days later, it's been crickets on both ends. She's high-valued woman who I'm sure gets lots of male attention. It's a fine line between looking needy and pursuing.

Do I wait a week to hit her up..."so how about that drink?" Or is there no harm in hitting her up now and setting something up?

I'm leaning towards the former. Don't want to be too pushy or over-eager with a high-valued woman like this.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I don't ever text a girl to ask her when she's free for drinks.

I'd text her and would ask her to join me for drinks. If she refuses for that night but does make a counter, then I know she's interested. If she refuses and makes no counter then I'd know she's not interested.

In either case, I lose nothing and still profit.

Alright, so what's done is done at this point. Think it's worth texting her now and asking her to join me for drinks tonight? Or is that looking needy at this point.

Just text her and invite her out. Nothing needy abt inviting women out.

Make it simple and brief.

Why not skip all the formalities, and just ask her to bed?

That's what you want, right? I've had women 'straight up' ask me to bed, so it's not as 'far fetched' as it may seem.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yeah. I didn’t follow up with a chick who was supposed to meet me for lunch today cause she told me that she’d text her address so I could pick her up but never did. I’m not gonna “pursue” that cause I know that if she was interested she would have texted her address.

Are you being for real or just sarcastic?

So you're saying just leave it as is?

Give her some time to think about it. Wait a week, you’re a busy man.
If she shows similiar disinterest at that time, forget her.
 

"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.
