"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.

Ok, so I've been trying to improve my social status at my school. I began sitting with the "popular kids" in one of my classes, but I'm having a bit of trouble becoming friends with them because whenever we get time in class to talk they all start talking to each other and they talk and joke about topics that I know nothing about (such as other popular kids). How should I go about joining in their conversation?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Do you want the safe answer, or the "sorry I asked" answer? I can give you both, it's your choice.

The "sorry I asked" number would be my choice though, your supposed to be sorry sometimes in life, it makes you stronger.

what is the "sorry I asked", nah, don't explain it.

My suggestion... keep doing class work but keep listening to their conversations, and if they get onto a subject that is something general, ...tonto, jump on it!

Story time. Last year there was this really hot girl I sat next to, and she talked with her friend. I had just moved to that school and knew nobody. I had a dying urge EVERYDAY to join their conversation, but it never seemed right.

Finally those freaks talked about something other than their friends, and I took the opportunity to join in. A couple jokse here and there, some rapport with the both of them, we all started to get to know each other.

I personally believ the safe answer is better, but you need the "sorry I asked".

Gatekeeper said it though, beat me to it, with the safe answer.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
