"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.

Ok, this isn't the usual friend question i don't think. So a long time ago (like when I was 5 or 6) this girl lived across the street from me and we used to always play together/carpool to school, the whole shebang, I think she had a crush on me too. Well she moved when i was 7 or something and I didn't really see her much since then.

Fast forward to now, I find her on facebook (and she's HOT now), we message back and forth about getting together, but we were both extremely busy at the time (1 month ago) so we agreed to get together when we had more time. So I send her a message the other day asking for her number so i can call her, the trouble is, she's rarely on facebook, but her number is posted right on her profile.

Questions:

1. Would it be weird to just lift her number off of her profile and call her? or should I wait for a response (i don't think she's hardly ever on facebook really, and I'd like to catch up with her)

2. How should I go about the first meeting? I haven't seen her in probably 10 yrs, so how do I keep things from being too weird? I was thinking about asking her to go for coffee, but i'd prefer something more 'interesting', any suggestions?

Keep in mind, I'm not necessarily trying to go out with her or anything, I just want to keep my options open ;)
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

Haha, ya i guess it kind of is like a chick flick. We are in the same city.


Weird thing is, just a couple minutes after i posted this she sent me a message with her number, I'm going to call her later this week. Anyone got ideas for the first meeting? Any tips/pointers?

that's good news for yah! avoid the typical boring dinner date... you should take her to a restaurant with live music. atleast if you guys are dried out on the convo, then you can just eat and listen to music.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Live music would be nice, except the town we live in is a little, shall we say, BORING. I'm trying to figure out what we could do where we'd have a chance to talk, but also at the same time, a chance to do something in order to fill the silences if needed. Something fun would be good too.
