You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
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.
Me: HiWomen: Do you copy paste to every girl?
Old_skoolr: Pretty much, its my way of screening which girls are worth talking to.
OP what message do you send to girls on OLD sites?
Hi is the worst thing you could possibly send as a first message online. They get tons of these lame first messages already, no need to add to it.Me: Hi
Her: Hi
Me: Hey! I'm not into the back and forth texting or pen pal thing. I'd like us to meet for a coffee one night this week and get to know each other better. Let me know if that sounds good to you
I've gotten some pretty harsh rejections along the lines of 'Go find someone else who is into that sort of thing'
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.
Hi is pretty generic but whatever works for you.Me: Hi
Her: Hi
