"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.

I'm a leo and I just looked up my zodiac sign for the first time, I never really gave it that much thought before, but it was kind of eerie as I read the description of my "sign" and just how true it rings out for me - it was almost like reading an auto-biography. What's your guys' take on the zodiac stuff?

Also, I was using this girl's laptop who I've been casually dating and I was typing a query in google and the autofill came up with "scorpio and leo comparability", so this was what got me intrigued about it in the first place. Apparently our relationship was predicted to be intense and passionate, but rocky, which again hit the nail on the head so far.

Anyway, I just got a kick out of this, I'm pulling an all-nighter to finish this paper that I can't get started for college.
 

"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.

I don't put much stock into it. They're just another thing that women love because they think it somehow involves destiny and finding "Mr. Right". Though honestly when I read the other people's zodiacs, I see some of myself in those ones too. They're very general.

To tell the truth I´m a (sometimes too) realistic guy. I don´t believe in anything until I tested it by myself and my test proved it to be true. Maybe because I´m a crazy mathematician. :crazy:

Anyhow, I made a quick zodiac sign compatibility test on my 3 LTRs and on the marriage of my parents (all of them are/were longer than 2 years). I did it on 2 different internet sites for validation – as I told you, I´m a crazy mathematician. :crazy: The compatibility tests were totally right in all 4 cases.

As a mathematician I have to say that high probably the zodiac sign compatibility theory is not a bullsh!t.

The only problem is that it said my current LTR will end up in a bad marriage. I have the same feeling…
 

"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.

Derren Brown? I know of him, the guy is a total nutcase who with the help of C4 and stupid British people manages to portray himself as a magician.

As for Zodiac signs, I don't pay too much attention to them. My sign has qualities that are true of me and qualities that are not true of me.
