"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 have no brakes after I drink hard liquor. I dont drink alone (only beer) I usually drink with my buddy maybe once a week or once in 2 weeks. Lately it has become a problem, as it moved away from drink and go sleep, to drink and then drink more and thats where the problems arise. I get loud when Im drunk. This last time I called my neighbor a faggit so that everyone could hear because he refused to help my drunk friend who fell into some bushes. Then I myself fell into bushes.

It wasnt always like this. It started half a year ago. For some reason I lost my brakes.

Now even when I drink just beer I end up wanting more.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Mate. If you are an ugly drunk you have to get off it. Sometimes it's a chemical thing in the brain based on what you drink. I am a happy drunk on everything else and an angry drunk on gin which I don't touch.

It's a slow patient path but meditation and yoga can help with the demons
