"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.

Should I care?

This girl that I've been talking to for like I week now, we finally met yesterday for the first time. I'm 20, she's 17. She had me meet her at the library close to her house because her father was complaining about her not being home. Anywho, the day pretty much went great, we joked around a lot and ended up kissing a lot.

Now the thing is, that I think that she might be seeing someone else. But until we've been officially declared as exclusive, I shouldn't care if she is or not right? I know she's into me, because she calls me everyday, more than once during the day, talks about us doing things together; fun and sexual, etc... But the reason for my suspicion is because, like yesterday i asked her what she's doing today and she was about to tell me something then she stopped herself and said, nope can't tell you that, and proceeded to tell me whatever she had pllaned.

Either way, at this point, should I give a damn if she's messing with other guys or not? I'm thinking no, and just enjoy the ride even if we don't end up being exclusive.
 

"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.

I'm not asking whether I care or not, I know that it's on my mind for various reasons. What I am asking though is should I? Should I slip it under the rug and not give a damn.

I think you'll have to slip it under the rug to keep your sanity.

Just have fun with her and go along for the ride and see where it takes ya.

I think if you two aren't exclusive, then you shouldn't care.

In fact, you should be seeing other women as well. Always have a backup girl.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

That's what I was thinking aswell. I wish I could find a backup. I got to speaking with this girl through a friend, there's not much to work with in my neighborhood, I most likely just need to get out more.
