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.
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.
well im turning it into a low rider and itsn ot slow man the thing gots some balls.. for a heavy car.. mine puts out 240 at the wheels but i dont speed so it doesnt concern me..Big Eee Zee said:umm, its nice, but its a crown vic.
i honestly dont see why people put lots of time into cars that are big, slow, and cant turn or stop well.
it is a lot more unique tho, and props to you for doing it.
and if you did the work yourself then you get a lot of respect in my book.
And neither would I, if you pulled up behind me. I'd slow my ass down to the speed limit, cuz I wouldn't want a ticket.sexy_kuta said:but i dont speed so
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
hahah yehhhhBrian20o2 said:Crown Victorias kick ass. Ive wanted one for a while and I think when I save up some money Im gonna try and get a retired cop car. Hell Everyone would think your a cop, and then you could do some stuff to make it look badass! Give it a gloss black paint job, some rims. You would look like a pimped out undercover cop. Imagin pulling up to a club in that!
yea there smooth, real smooth on the high ways..Exp said:I like those kind of cars.
They are really comfortable when driving for a long time.
