"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.

please bare with me, im gonna try and make this as short as i can.

With the help of this site, got a gf at my senior year. It lasted until the end of the school year, im a graduate and shes a senior now so its over. We decide to give it 'closure' but it was hard for me to move on ( i know..****in chump) coz while she was gone for summer, i was stuck here doing nothin coz my family was gonna move. but we got delayed to the point where she arrived three days before i leave.

i still have some feelings for her and my instincts tell me she does, but shes acting like she doesn't to protect herself. shes done something similar in the past (during our relationship) coz she was 'scared to lose me'. long story short: i called her on it, said im not the kind of person to take this kind of bull****, gonna break up, she apologized and all was fine.

Anyways she arrives and calls me. i acted as my usual self and started busting jokes on her coz her english had gotten worse (english is her 2nd lang). she was laughing a lot and calling me names she would call me when we were in a relationship. id tell her to stop because we arent anymore but i thought it would make things too awkward. I told her that there was something different abt her voice and it wasnt her english but i couldnt figure out what it was.

Anyways, (iv been abusing that word) she asks if i wanna meet up and go to a sheesha/hookah cafe with her and my friend who we'll call Joe. Joe WAS one of my close friends and knows ill be leaving soon. he even said we'll do something before i leave for good but he disappears without a trace and now is makin plans to hang out with my ex without me knowing. am i right to think hes a ****ing backstabber?

i call her and shes already out with him at the cafe but before i could say anything she just BURSTS out laughing for like 1 minute straight. i ask whats so funny? she says i cant tell u, joe would kill me. somehow i think it could be related to me. mother****er, this girl kept nothing from me. me being pissed and crushed, i replied: i wont be meeting up with u guys, im not in the mood for sheesha and it would be awkward. She replies: i dont think its awkward, im fine. This irritates me and i replied: stop acting so high and mighty, i can make it awkward....btw i found out what was missing in ur voice. she says: "what?" i reply: "affection." Her Response: "......" i said bye and hung up. did i do the right thing? should i have gone? i find out they went to her house to hang out after. as far as i know im the only guy that shes had over. **** maybe im thinking too much into this joe guy but i cant help feeling betrayed.

LAST PARAGRAPH. so i go out with another friend and come back home. i get a message from her: "Im sorry i was acting wierd, i would love to see u before u leave. i miss u..." ****ING MIXED MESSAGES :cuss: and my instincts were right! now...WTF DO I DO? do i just tell her no? do i see her? if i do see her what do i do? what should i say?! how should i act? iv gone way too rusty, feel free to be hard on me, im going to use this experience to improve myself.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Walk away. Go no contact. Don't do it to get her back, do it to get over her. It will be hard but enough time away from someone will make you forget about them. Remember that just about everyone goes through it.

Seems like she simply wants to get it on before you get out.
Perhaps that's why she had your "friend" over. She might be having emotional problems, but it seems as though she just wants some.
But, i don't know her. And, by the way, i think you did the right thing.
Dont contact her unless you only want to get it on too.
Get jiggy wit it, ya know?:D

yea, took the advice and just moved on. i feel much better and im back to myself again. funny thing is while i was talking to a friend on msn like a week later, she comes online and starts talking to me even though we've both been online at the same time a few times before. apparently its only because one of my old teachers wants to know how i was doing and thot that he could contact me thru her. gave her an excuse to talk to me is what i think. nywys i told her she was a ray of sunshine (sarcasm) because she was very timid while chatting. then out of the blue she says she is really lonely and misses me. my reply: "its just memories at this point." end of convo. booyah, thanks for the help guys.:D
