"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.

Is this a good way of showing social proof/worth?

If there's one thing I'm good at, it's writing. Now, it's not very often that this trait gets to come out in public (I've published some stuff, but it's not as though kids these days read at all :p ). But to be honest, I have some hot babes in my English class. I mean, they're getting up into the HB8's. And there I have an opportunity to read my stuff out loud in front of an audience, as well as working on building some comfort, showing a sense of humor and connecting to an audience.

I'm just wondering if, in your opinion, getting some laughs, "Ooh"'s, "Ah"'s, and sighs is a good way to widen my social circle and show social proof?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Of course, it is. It's called Charisma. Charisma melts women's panties. They fall for the middle-aged preacher. He loses his wife and kids in an affair. It happens all the time. Charisma, storytelling, being about to shoot the fly in mid-flight with a bright smile will make mothers and sisters alike think you're their long lost relative who they'd declared dead through the courts after they went missing 11 years ago.

Now put that speech-making with a million dollars, THEN you've got it made as there will always be one onlooking hottie in the audience, who will come up to greet and get to know you better, after your speech.

She'll think her good instincts (vanity) will recognize a MAN who's going places, and say, "I think I want to have his baby(s)." "That's the one. Yep. :cheer: " Then several year down the line, she'll divorce you and take half your money :moon: and kids, but hey, that's the risk you'll have to take in this short life. Use it or lose it!

Well in my english class we also have alot of hotties.

Whenever I go up to do a presentation or write or the board or w.e,I GUARANTEE atleast a laugh.I basically try and go really really goofy.

Dont get into this whole detailed story thing even if you are good at writing.I mean if its talented then thats great but as you said you need humour to connect with the audience.If you show her that you can deliver an OK speech while making it humourous,you got it in the bag
