"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 actually kinda like this idea. Sell Puerto Rico, buy Greenland form Denmark and offer a Iceland and Norway a chance to join the American community.


 

"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.

How awesome would it be if Greenland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden were offered statehood and joined the American community.

Name 10 outstanding things that America has to offer?

Nah...I'll offer a 50% discount, how abt 5 outstanding reasons?
 

"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.

I do not think he has the power to do this. This has to be authorized by Congress.

Coronavirus, racism, civic unrest, lawlessness, massive debt.
I'm pretty sure I could do 10, but I'll stop there.

We'll, the fella who thinks people wants to come to America has not offered a single thingy yet...

Only the desperate wants to enter the US.

Some of you guys really need to get out of America and visit other countries.

You're linking to a CNN article? shame on you for giving those filthy liars any clicks.

I think the PuertoRicans should be deciding their own destiny and not be dictated to in such a fashion. I also doubt the icelanders and norwegians would be interested in joining the US and giving up their sovereignty in the process.

Let Puerto Rico do what it wants to do.

Considering our failed state at the moment, maybe they get while the getting is good.

Also I can't imagine Greenland wants any part of this mess.

Puerto Rico will be the 52nd state, after DC.
Washington, DC is ur country's capital, very much doubt it will be a state, rightfully, it belongs to the federal govt and should be govern directly by the federal govt via a dedicated ministry, as in most countries.

The District’s 800,000 tax-paying residents are being denied the right of self-governance that all other Americans enjoy.

Didn't they get to vote for their mayor?

I'm confident that they have the ability to enact bylaws that's pertinent to their city and wellbeing.

BTW all central governments, in the entire world needs land to operate from, they can't simply operate on land that's govern by a separate govt, it will create tremendous problems for a country to function.
