"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've been perusing this lately,and have been noticing ads from some quite attractive and sexually willing women. I haven't been seeing the usual fat and ugly chicks that are typical of online dating. Perhaps it's just being used as fronts for spam or escort services, etc.?

(update)

This seems like a legit ad. Of course, a guy like me, or the 39 year old virgin guy, would not have a chance with this "plus sized" woman in any case (heightism.) (BTW, does she look like she is only 19?)

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

"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.

You have to sort through the posts.

Some ads are posted by escorts who are looking for clients. When you respond the girl will offer you a deal.

Some ads are posted by Cam & phone services using the free CL post to try and find customers.

Some ads are posted by dating services and other websites using the free CL post to lure customers.

Some ads are posted by fat women who are desperate.

Some ads are posted by older women who are desperate.

Some ads are posted by ugly women who are desperate.

Some ads are posted by Phishers.

Some ads are posted by women who want to cheat on their husbands.

I remember this being discussed before. It's pretty much a grab bag of all of the above. Very few are legit ads from good women.
