"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.

As you can see, it's so far nothing more than an introduction and the outlines of the work.

You could say... I'm just the spark that sets the fire burning.. or not. By that I mean I'm not going to work on it alone!

EVERYONE WHO WILL SUPPORT THE WORK, LEAVE A COMMENT.

Oh, and get going!:D
 

"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.

Post a quick tip section, ie: 5 Min Close, The 2-Second rule, Short Chat Ideas, etc.

Articles posted cannot be longer then a paragraph persay. That should get some balls rolling (oops :rolleyes:).

Could be 3, but it's the one where if I see a girl, I have those 2/3/5 seconds to go up to her.

I read it somewhere in a thread.
 

"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.

another step to going mainstream...ashame if you ask me. Being more exclusive compared to the biggest group of people is a pro.

I don't see it becoming more mainstream. If the wDJB (wiki DBJ lol :D) fulfilled its potential, it still would be mostly read by DJs. Just like they don't bang on about the DJB on mASF.
