"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.

I see females in class that I want to approach, but since class is a bad time for an approach since I have to copy down the material I want to approach after class.

The problem is that I feel stalkerish if I know that I will have to follow her and don't approach as a result. Any advice?

I think that I should come to class later and wait and see where she sits down and go sit next to her and make an approach which I think is the better thing to do.
 

"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.

Yeah....if you sit near her, it shouldn't be too hard.

Or, get there early and talk to her before class.

Dude, say, "Hello". lol When you give a sh1t, they give a sh1t. Just say something. I always get people excited to talk to me because I talk about them. Once they realize I have no other intentions other than shooting the sh1t, they want to know more about me. I could care less if they like me or not because I'm not bringing anything out of it. I already know I'm wonderful, and I'm doing them a favor by letting them talk to me. You is da man. Stop making them so much better than you, dude. Stop the fear!

I agree with what the other posters said. U should go try to sit next to her. If she doesn't seem that responsive(Girls tend to be shy now and then)...keep on talking...then she'll realize that ur just a friendly guy and open up. Also, if its after class..when she's on her way out, say "Stop for a second" with a smile. She'll be curious. I S HIT YOU NOT!!!! Then you can start talking and walking with her. :) Its worth a try.

Also you can be afraid, but u'll feel much better after u do it. By no means, def don't feel stalkerish if ur about to approach her. Good luck Demon Wolf.
 

"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.

I sat down next to a girl and talked to her for a few minutes. I made a few jokes about the AC being too cold and how messed up the auditorium was and she liked it. When I said goodbye I got sustained direct eye cotnact from her so I think I did good.

yeah, not a bad start. Now just work on your grammar ;)

lol but seriously, make sure you follow up with her. Some C&F, make her laugh some more, initiate kino, and you're good to go.

Three Words: You Did right. :up:
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I'm like havin the same problem, just theres some chick thats hot, no one sits with her and hasn't all semester, and same with me. Do you guys think she'll thinks it weird if I sit by her one day and start talkin to her? Because I haven't yet, and it's not because I was scared too, it was just that I had a gf so I never thought much of it.
