"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.

This is the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me since I opened up:

Before, I couldn't talk with a hottie even if I hated her. Now, I can talk to anyone relatively easily. But, today, I went back to youth group after missing like 5 weeks and couldn't say anything unless spoken to.

There was this one chick that basically told me she wanted to get to know me cuz we go to different schools, but I could think of a million and a half things to say and no balls to say anything. I'll have week after week to be C+F but I wanna know:
1) where'd this sudden shyness come from?
2) WTF went wrong that made me become introverted outa nowhere?
3) Every question is asking the same thing XD
 

"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.

Maybe u just had an off day.

I've had that happen to me before and its important not to dwell on it or it could keep coming back. Just try not to think about it and be yourself when u go back there.

Also, when u go back, try getting comfortable first with the other guys there and girls u dont care about. Then that way it will be easier to talk to the hot girl later. If she sees u having a good time, she'll be more attracted to you.

I become "shy" when I start to worry about what others will think of what I say. Or when I'm out of energy.
