"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 just posted an article on my blog about how I dress when I go out these days, with a picture for those who haven't met me IRL. I go into why I wear certain things, as well as how I acheive my look. You guys are welcome to take pieces of my style and make them your own, as well as give me advice on how you think I could improve my look. Check it out:

"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.

We were just talking about the loose tie idea in chat last night. Anyways, I like the look. Have you thought about using a t-shirt with a good design underneath instead of the white undershirt?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Man, I used to wear that kind of stuff in high school and it worked then - I sort of drifted away from that style toward the end of college...I feel like it presents you as a kid. I dunno. Maybe I should revisit the old wardrobe. I have been going more for the James Dean/50s gangster style lately and it seems to be working pretty well. Any thoughts?

Peacocking means standing out.

I live in Rome.

RE:

dancing is my peacocking! Gets annoying though sometimes when I got the club or bar and hear "OMG, there's that dancing guy!! SHow my friend how you do those waves in your body"

LOL!

tie is too big and too long, should go around the outside of your collar, but then you'd look like me, just my 2 cents :D
