"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.

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.

So there's a big dinner party tommorow night, there's this girl that I'm kind of hollaring at and she said she couldn't make it, although she was never going as my date to begin with, she'd be comming with her friends if she did come - cool, so I ask girl 2 who I've been dating on and off to go with me, girl 2 accepts. Turns out the first girl is comming now..

what to do?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

well, girl 1 never rejected my offer - I just heard through the grapevine that she wasn't going to make it. However, after hearing that I was going - she gamed up and decided to come. I just don't see this ending well.
