"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 have been on my new career job for only five weeks.

Yesterday, I had to go to another branch to pick something up from someone.

Apparently the woman liked what she saw and e-mailed me if I would like to go out for coffee sometime.

I am 31 and she is 33-34 I think. She is not at all bad looking, I am just not sure what I should do.

I already sort of told her no, but I would go as a friend.

My reasons why:

1.) She is 33-34 and looking to settle down.

2.) She works in the library headquarters (I work in a branch) where I would like to eventually end up.

3.) I just started this job and I have not established myself yet.


However, if the 23 year old part-timer from downstairs asked me out, I would all over it.
