"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.

Were you surprised that the Blue Jays won last night?

I'm not a huge baseball fan but I did watch Game 7 last night, what a nail biter! And congrats to the Dodgers, both teams played great.

I'm curious what y'alls favorite play/hit is generally. Obviously a home run is exciting especially when bases are loaded but more exciting than that (imo) is a clean line drive down the center with three men on base.

Watching the outfield/infield players scrambling as the guys on base all come home, that's exciting.

Yoshinobu Yamamoto won that game and the series for the Dodgers, truly talented player, his parents must be so proud.

Apparently it was one of the best series ever, but since I live in Toronto, hopefully one day I’ll get to appreciate it lol
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

He picks up the trash in the dugout after the game. The Japanese teach young people to respect the playing field. It's part of the martial arts honor system, respect the dojo. There's a spiritual significance to it.

If you had bet a dollar on the Dodgers to win the world series, and that bet was placed before the first game of the entire season had been played, that dollar would now be worth....$1.20. That's how heavily favored they have been. So it was a small miracle that the series was so close.

Awful way to end the series on a GIDP everyone and their grandma saw coming.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I haven't followed baseball in over 30 years, but I did watch some of this World Series including all of Game 7, even though I'm not a fan of either team. That was a great World Series and a wild Game 7. A memorable one for sure.

I would like to have a Brooklyn Dodgers cap though, I think those are cool. Not because I like the Dodgers or even Brooklyn, I just think they're a cool piece of retro. Also, Ben Grimm wears one in the new Fantastic Four movie.
