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.
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.

I don't really think women can be delineated as either wholesome or hot in this case. I think a better division is by women who know what they want and women who think that they know what they want.Originally posted by 00Kevin
Do quality women (the ones that are good for LTRs) take more time to pursue?
The reason I ask this is that I've noticed that my DJ skills work really well on hot girls but they don't work on the women who are, with lack of a better word, “wholesome”.
I find that I have to tone it down a bit for the good girls.
The reason I say this is that I've noticed that the good girls don't put you through **** tests. Furthermore, the good girls are not little princesses. When that is a case you don’t have to put forth your entire game. In fact you have to tone it down a lot. [/B]
For chicks? this is the understatement of the year.Things sometimes work a bit differently online
Nailed it.Why should she give you her number? She's satisfied in knowing that she can chat with you online for weeks at a time. Face it, women who are truly interested will make themselves available to you, this one won't even let you call her.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
