"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.

It's absurd.
I know it's not communism, but when did we stop believing in free markets?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Exactly. If you have something that I want, I should just offer you enough money to get you to sell it to me. And if that thing is worth more to you than money, then I should get bent.

LIKE:

"Hey, I like your wedding ring. Can I have it?"
"No."
"How about if I give you a hundred dollars?"
"No."
"A thousand?"
"No."
"A million?"
"Sure."

OR

"Hey, I like your wedding ring. Can I have it?"
"No."
"How about if I give you a hundred dollars?"
"No."
"A thousand?"
"No."
"A million?"
"No, this is too important to me to sell for any amount of money."

There is no end to what this "land of the free" country will do in the name of money. The original America died some time ago.

How about we force people to auction off their home at the age of 70?

Sifer, I totally agree. This eminent domain abuse would not have been allowed in the 50's.

and it is abuse. It is clearly stated in the constitution. Public use. Not public purpose. Not the benefit of the public.

and there is no way to determine a fair price without a market for it. You can't just guess what the market would allow

It's a great time to be super-rich in America.


(And it's a bad time to be anything else.)
 

"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.

I could have sworn there's a rule about not discussing political matters on this forum.

Oh wait, there is.
