"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.

Advice for getting over my ex?

Hey guys,

I'm in a bit of a jam here, and this site looks like it's got some people that can help. I got dumped by my ex a few months ago and cannot stop thinking about her. We were together for just over a year and it was the best thing I ever had. I think of her almost every day and it's getting in the way of more important things like work. It's like the memory of her is ****ing haunting me or something.

Any advice for moving on?
 

"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.

Go to the gym, and keep busy. Talk to other women...and try to focus on your life.
Other than, there's no magic pill to get over one-itis, you just have to man up and stay tough.

Good luck, and remember it will pass with time.

Oh and if you get those haunting memories, force yourself to think about something else no matter how hard it seems.

Thanks for the advice, but I wish it were that easy. I don't have much free time outside of work and that time is usually spent preparing for when I have to go back to work. I'm living like a ****ing hermit.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I'm pretty sure my post in the link that Savage posted is more than enough to help you get over your ex. ;)

Hope I helped.

I would go with what most of the guys on this thread advises...

Get on with your life. Find a hobby. Meet other people. However, DON'T be needy!!!
 

"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.

She slept with another dude while she was with me. I later found out and confronted her about it. She was super apologetic, cried, and all that jazz, so I figured everyone is entitled to a **** up and forgave her since everything was good up till then. Bad idea. I was a paranoid ******* after that and she couldn't handle it, so she broke it off.

You know... I messed up big time, but she ****ing tore my heart out. Thanks for the support guys.

lol it was her who cheated on you, she didn't respect you, im going to sound blunt here but eventually you will get over, you have just been hurt and disrespected, these things take time and you need to go through the healing process fully, you can see you were wrong to forgive, remember she is not good enough for you if she slept with another guy you have no done anything wrong, she is the one who made you paranoid and the one who couldnt handle it, healing your wounds takes as long as it needs to take, eventually you will go out and meet more women

1. Self improvement, have a goal, look at your career, do a course, do things for YOU!

2. Make a list of things you DIDN'T like about her.

3. Now picture your dream girl, bet it's not her anymore.
