"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.

Padron Reserve maduro in hand while finishing my b
I'm sitting here with my legs dangling in my pool. In my left hand I hold my last Gurkha Warlord, by my right is a glass of Jack Daniel green label and diet coke.

I'm looking over the water contemplating the past couple of weeks and I've realized that I haven't accomplished a goddamned thing.

What have I done to help a brother in need? Nothing.
What have I done to make myself an example for the younger man? Nothing.

What the fvck have I done? I've caused a bunch of name calling, finger pointing nonsense to get in the way of progress. Forward progress. What I've done is regress. I've gone fvcking backwards.

Player Supreme, I am tossing this bullsh!t aside between you and I. I don;t want anyone to reply to this thread except Supreme (if he chooses).

I'm doing this for me. To get past this miasma of superiority I've been sucked into. I fully accept the responsiblity of my words and actions.

What I haven't realized is that Supreme is helping guys. Is it my way? Nope. Is it wrong? Nope. He's teaching guys lessons the way he knows how.

It's not wrong, it's different. My ego got a little too far on it's leash and I had to drag it in.

Supreme, do your thing my man. I won't knock your style any longer. What dawned on me was that YOU are teaching guys in the real world, as I am.

For that, props to you.

I'm letting bygones be bygones. Whether you accept my truce or not is irrelevant to me. The importance is that I make it known for my own self esteem and peace of mind.

I pass you the peace pipe brother.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
