"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"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.

I live just outside of Tampa Bay and follow the Lightning closely but my heart and soul belong to Bean town.
I don't think the Lightning will get past the Sens either. I was at game 4 here in Tampa and they looked like stir fried sh!t. Marty was a li'l firecracker as usual.

Ya, now that they freed up some sallary space, bruins need to invest into some good younger players during the offseason. I heard rumors that they will try to get Zdeno Chara once he becomes a free agent, at all costs.KarmaSutra said:
As for tampa, I know what you mean. That's what happens when you don't have a deep bench. There's only so mach St Louis, Lecavalier, and Richards can do before they get tired and play weak. By having a deep bench like the sens did, you get to spread minutes around and allow star players to rest and go the distance without turning sloppy (most of the time). In the playoffs, that makes all the difference.
Well the Bruins are on the right track after firing their GM (should have been fired on the spot for trading Joe Thornton).MindOverMatter said:
I still have my hopes that Detroit will bounce out of their funk and beat Edmonton. If that is not the case then its going to come down to between the Devils and the Sens and whomever comes out on top will win it all.

amazing 3rd period game, but detroits age finally cought up with it. the ultra competitive northwest division looks like it will win all of its series. first colorado, then edmonton then calgary. so far, this is shaping to be one of the best stanley cup races ever.
from the looks of it, next stop: battle of alberta, this is gonna be tooth and nail combat.
big salute to stevie Y, one of the greatest captains to ever step into a hockey arena.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Man, did the Mighty Ducks get ripped off in the 1st period of today's game. They should definitely make any call reviewable if it affects a goal.
Now its round number 2 here are my predictions.
Buffalo Vs Ottawa - This will be a goal fested series but ultimatley I give the edge to the sens. Sens in 6.
NJ vs Carolina - Carolina looked confused at times against the Canadians and their playoffs inexperience was showing. NJ in 5.
SJ Vs Edmonton - This will be a tough serious because it could go either way. Joe Thornton is the key here because he tends to dissapear during the playoffs when his team needs him most. As a result I give it to Edmonton in 7.
Anaheim Vs Colorado - before the playoffs I would have given the edge to Anaheim but now its seems that Colorado goltender Jose Theodore has gained his form back and looks to be very good. I say Colorado in 6.

"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.
