"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.

its been quite a while since I have posted ,

lately I have been hitting the gym and dropping some pounds, getting in shape , I dramatically cut back on drinking beer, I am doing good at my job ,I just bought a new truck (well used but its pretty brand new ) .

I have done all these changes in my life without the help of anyone .

but when I tell people about them I get , negative feedback .

the people that knew me , say the miss the old me ...

when I was overweight , had a ****ty car , had no job .

I answer back with , I needed a a change , but they think I am being stupid .

I am also dealing with a bad rejection ,I picked up this girl I fell deeply for her and she played me . so I blew her off, it's been a few weeks close to a month . what's ticking me off is that she is talking about me to other people as if It was all my fault and I blew it , I guesses she knew some peeps , that I happen to know and I had no idea. until now .

I am trying to get out of this downward emotional spiral , when everything else seems to go good , something bad starts to happen .

some encouraging words could really help me out ,

I also focused too much on trying to find a gf , since all my friends have one , I'm just the only single guy , who happens to have his S*it straight . while everybody else , is banging and having kids .

maybe that last bit has all my frustrations ,anything helps right now .
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Most people are complacent. Your friends are probably complacent, and have settled for being who they are, not improving themselves. That might be jealous, or it might just be something for them to say.

I am also dealing with a bad rejection ,I picked up this girl I fell deeply for her and she played me . so I blew her off, it's been a few weeks close to a month . what's ticking me off is that she is talking about me to other people as if It was all my fault and I blew it , I guesses she knew some peeps , that I happen to know and I had no idea. until now .
Forget about her and date more women. Dating other women will stop you "falling for" them, and it'll show people you're an attractive ladies' man.

I also focused too much on trying to find a gf , since all my friends have one , I'm just the only single guy , who happens to have his S*it straight . while everybody else , is banging and having kids .
Don't look for a girlfriend, just date women and see where things go. Trying too hard to get something will drive it away.

You say all your friends have girlfriends, but are they quality women? Probably not. Dont let anyonbe bring you down, if you have a goal, dont let anyone get in your way. More likely than not all your friends envy you and probably wanna be where you are.

As for the girl you dated, women do that. Women can never put theree hand up and take the blame when they are in the wrong. Why dont you try dating someone outside of your normal circle of friends.

You look good, got a good job, decent wheels and you seem like a peoples person, the world is yours, go out and embrace it, and if you lose some friends along the way, you will make new ones too. Enjoy life, you only live once!

It's hard to improve yourself. The fact you were able to muster up the willpower and determination to do so, and actually have done so, is commendable and an admiring personal quality.

So naturally, your friends are going to be jealous and wish they were you. Don't let them bring you down. But don't talk about your improvements to them so much either... No one likes to hear about someone elses better fortune, to be honest... And if you don't mention it it's unlikely they will either.

Whoever mentions it at that point is just being a d*ck.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
