"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.

Yeah, I just want to post about a certian thing Iam sorta going through right now. To make this clear, my best friend is a girl, and their is not romantic connection between us. But it seems that whenever she tells me about something she did, like skating or something with a friend and all and Iam not present for it, I start getting jealous tendencies. I don't get it. Iam not a jealous person, and generally don't care who she hangs out with. But I get these tendencies get in the way.

Any explanations, suggestions, interpretations appreicated.

This is one of the unusual time when I have actually posed a relationship question. Wierd.
 

"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 even get how we are so close friends, but we are.

You do like her dude,its like a one-itis which you don't want to believe because of the differences you both have.

I have the same problem in a way,but here,the girl I like is super rich and I'm not.That's the difference I mess with everyday.

To get over your jealousy,you have to start hanging out with her more often.If you hang out with her a lot,she will start talking about stuff you both did together rather than stuff she did with someone last weekend and such.When she starts talking about stuff you did together,you will really enjoy it and feel your heart glow if you like her..And *Poof*..Jealousy is gone.

You like her, you just haven't realised it yet. Hanging out with her all the time means she might talk about what you both did together, but it will also make you like her a lot more, drive her away because you're seeing her too often, and probably make you look needy. Solutions: Hit on her; keep feeling jealous and let it pass; rationalise with the jealousy until you realise that it doesn't solve anything. Of course, having other girls will help you think of other things, tho.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
