"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Unless you are financially unable - you SHOULD go to prom and ENJOY yourself. Show up late, spend an hour remembering the good times youve had (everyones had SOME) - go out and get drunk... have some afterprom fun!

I found a hot sophomore to go with me so I don't have to worry about it anymore.

Exactly where I want to be.
I have an almost mandatory recommendation: Alcohol.

I have a very fond memory of my senior prom and a group of about 30 of us beforehand just getting hammered and going in.

It was a great time...Everyone carefree as hell just having the time of our lives. Just when I thought the night couldnt get any better, "Wish You Were Here" by Incubus came on. As soon as it started I looked over to a couple buddies of mine and we each yelled in unison at the top of our lungs "Fvck yeah!" The three of us climbed up onto some bleachers (it was in our HS gym) and sang the sh!t out of it. Hell, we even attracted a decent crowd cheering us on, even though I'm not sure if they could hear us over the speakers. Now that I think about it, the song was like an anthem for the night. Good times...Good times.

But anyway...Have fun, man.

I've got my senior prom this year too. I didn't even think about asking a girl. Do you have to dress up to go? I was thinking I would go with my friends up not really dressed up.
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

I'm not positive but I assume just about every prom is formal (tux and dresses).

I want to get a buzz going before the dance but I have a little problem. The guys dance with their mom after grand march. I know she'll smell the alcohol but I really want to drink before it. What should i do?
