"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.

So last night i went up to Colorado State University to kick it with some people. My friend had a costume party and at first i lacked a costume, but i managed to whip some stuff up and i became a pimp. I need to say that halloween is my new favorite holiday ever! Anyway...

To start the night off my friend introduced me to some girl. She seemed like she had something more important to do so i didnt really talk to her. Later i introduced myself to some girls and chatted with them for a minute. By this time the alcohol was flowing and i was getting more comfortable with the whole approaching **** after the first one. I left the group 1 to quest to the bathroom which was an adventure in itself.

I was waiting to take a piss and 2 girls went in the bathroom and when they came out i asked them why girls go piss in pairs and sh*t. I asked some other girls the same question and they started rambling on. At some point i vaguely remember a girl saying i should go to the bathroom with her and her friend, but that her friend probably had to actually piss. Later that night, the one girls friend came over to me and told me to take care of her friend and winked. When her and her friend were leaving, i chatted her up then she gave me her number.

I called her later that night after the party we were at got busted. She was trying to get a ride so i told her id call her back but i didnt. Sooo, she feels its nescissary to call me and act mad since i didnt call her back. After her little tantrum she asked what i was doing. She said she was going to sleep, but i dont see why she would have called to complain and tell me shes sleeping. Unfortunatly i was wasted and couldnt drive.

That was the single highlight of my night. I had every girl in the party looking at me. Sh*t feels great. Social proof works wonders.:cheer: :cheer:
 

"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.

Just thinking about it makes me excited. I was close to getting some. I should have done better.

listen to me. if you keep regretting every perceived failure to get laid, IT WILL DESTROY YOU. it will become all you can think about. "why didn't i do this? what could I have done better?" put it behind you, but LEARN for next time! :)
