"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 haven't seen anything on here about this so here it is. www.pandora.com It's really great. That's about all I've got, just check it out. You put in an artist or song you like and it plays other songs related to it. It usually works really well. For example, I like Saul Williams so when you do that not only does it play other hip hop with musical styles that are similar, but also similar lyrical themes. I use it a lot, just wanted to share.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

:up: One of the best sites on the net. To bad people outside the US can't access it any more; at least not without a little trickery.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

There's no unified method of paying for the rights to the songs for people who listen to it in other countries. They would need to come to an agreement with each and every artist that they play. Talk about administrative overhead!

Yeah, no kidding. I loved the site. I was like "No way!" when I got the restricted access message for the first time. Meh.

Search the net, I know of some guys who have found a couple of ways to access the site.

Ah, the magic of Proxy's! :cheer:

Already rollin'. Thanks, Francisco.

EDIT: Well, almost, anyway. When the loading is being done, it says technical difficulties are being experienced. I'll just wait and try again.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Let me know if you make it through, there's more than one route so I've heard. If not I'll ask my buds how they went about doing it.

I'd appreciate that, Francisco, since I haven't been lucky since. Everytime I use Proxy's the loading stops due to "technical difficulties".
