"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.

Around July I got pretty sick and dropped down to 49kgs (108lbs). My waist size dropped and I had to poke a new hole in my belt!

A few months ago I found my health again and made it to 57kgs (126lbs). My gym program is really working for me and I'm noticeably bigger on the upper body. I also started squatting and can now squat my own body weight. My waist grew two belt sizes

However, in the past few weeks my waist size has once again shrunk two belt sizes and I'm back to using the new hole I punched in. I still weigh 126lbs though, how can this be???
 

"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.

I believe it's a good thing, so don't fret. The same thing happened to me. I don't think your waist muscles grow particularly big, so without any fat I expect it to remain the same size.

"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.

Uh, if he weighs 126lbs now, and was still living at 108lbs, I'm guessing there was almost no fat on him to begin with. ;)
