"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.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Ok, found this thread again.

I wont go into details but a month ago I had to walk out of a job, a pretty decent paying job because I couldnt handle the stress. I had worked there a month. Naturally I got depressed but what made it even worse was that I had moved to a different area specifically for this position. I ended up emailing a helpline because of the way I was feeling it was so bad.

So what got me out of it? Well, the good thing about feeling depressed and suicidal is that those feelings do not last forever but it sure feels like hell while you are going through it. For me I decided to make a couple of lifestyle changes, meaning changing my diet and quitting drinking. I more or less got back to basics. Because my position was tech related, I decided to study and practice a bit, which increased the confidence that was lost when I quit. Although I still hung out with my friends, I decided to keep to myself and focus on improving my inner game. Of course this meant shifting my focus on meeting women, although I have become really good friends with a girl I met online.

At this point in time I still havent found a job yet, although my motivation is back in bounds and I have been aggressively looking. Because of the situation I am even willing to settle for a crappy $9.00/hr job thats totally not related to my field. I am eating a lot better and am starting to lose the weight I gained during my month of depression. I have been walking and excercising a lot more especially since the gas prices have been so high (paying a dollar a litre here in Canada). Finally, I feel like I am in control of my emotions instead of having my emotions control me. How long this will last I do not know but one thing I do know is that I intend to make the most of it.

There is some golden advice in this thread.

I've just lost the capacity to feel sorry for myself anymore. This is good.
