"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.

WTF will I do during this down time? I plan on working out at the school gyms, read this Lance Armstrong book and take care of some errands on campus. Should I walk around campus and town trying to create a big social circle for myself?

I've got my own apartment 1 block away from campus, no roomates and it's in the heart of the downtown area ;)
How would you all play this?
 

"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.

Go ahead and have fun. It wont hurt to be friendly and get to know people. You're on your own and school hasnt started yet; take advantage of it.

yea, no need to go out of your way to make things happen. you have plenty of time, use it to get to know your surroundings. but again, it doesnt hurt to be friendly, if you see someone who looks like they're lost on campus (preferably a girl) offer to walk with her, if you know your way good if you dont then you can learn together.

well I moved in, have to wait till sunday to go back, until then I'm hanging at my bro's place. It should be good. I'm halfway through college, so this new school should be good to redeem myself, not necessarily start over. Already planning on attending an event Sunday night.
 

"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.

Finally living on my own now and it's good. I dont live a block away, I'm actually right across the street from the cadets and a dining hall :) and now have the net. Chicks are in hiding lol and I plan on using the gym tomorrow 1st time.

I'm actually 20-years-old and go to an ACC school, not L.T. I used to post under a diff. username. Ran into the football coach today!
