"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

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.

Hi

I have a whatsapp group with all my friends, including my ex since she's a part of that group.

Today I posted something there of something fun that happened to me today. My friends responded but she was very fast to say something completely of topic that was in fact of no interest to anyone. Ok in a sense it's of no interest to anyone what happened to me todya but anyway...

I'm not looking to get back with her, I just want to know if she posted it because she was annoyed or whatever?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

She read about you having a good time with your life post split and she probably wanted to show everyone in the group she had a life too. You will never really know the reason why though.

Right behind you
Take the attention away from you and onto her. It's all subconscious and she probably felt awkward like "why did I send that?" after no one really cared.

Don't overthink.

Throwing in that disclaimer pretty much ensures that you'd at least consider getting back with her if what she was trying to pull on whatsapp turned out to be an indicator of interest.

If you weren't looking to get back with her at all you wouldn't even be curious about this.
 

"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.

You can say whatever your want, a break-up is 1 thing, remaining emotions are another.

The down size of splitting is that communication can become very weird, you (both) will interpret messages completely different than other people ... just because your mutual emotions that often turn into negatively ...

Ex acting weird? Is that like a convict acting guilty? Or a ho acting slvtty? Or a Hillary supporter acting needy?

By definition, all exes are acting weird, namely they are your ex.

She's an "X" that you still have a little feeling for or you wouldn't post here otherwise. Start spinning some plates and start living your life away from the past!

She is looking for attention. Just ignore her.
