"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.

Make him swim in the shark tank for those 30 hours. The sharks will show him who owns the water.

But he was being an alpha risk taker!
These are the guys that females select so that their genetic material gets to be passed on.
If they survive the sharks, that is.

That's just an example of a stupid teenager with a follower mindset.

Reminds of the kids on the TV show "scared straight". I remember one where this young teenager was in a gang and they told him to carry drugs to school in his backpack, naturally he went and did what they told him for I'm sure some sort of promise.

I've taken stupid risks when I was younger, skydiving, bungi jumping, sex with the ladies, but I'd never swim with sharks. That's just plan dump and would be a very painful death. Ever see 007 Licence to Kill's shark scene?

 

"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.

Risks are fine as long as there is a great reward in case of a (possible) positive outcome...risks for the sake of taking a risks are the sure sign of a stupid mind.
