"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.

They're in a very close knit group of friends....

"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.

hahaha, nice advice sin - real constructive...


LJBF the girl who likes you - which includes acting really AFC around her. Once shes won over as your friend you can use her to get the girl you like.

Hey I deserve a break once in awhile.

I seriously don't see a way out of this unless that other girl already likes you as well. Probably best to just move on. Maybe come back later.

The thing is, it's high school, and even this AFCness might not turn her away. But anyway give it a try if sammy thinks it will work.

Probably not impossible though. Girls end up hating their best friends forever over stuff like this. Be carefull.

...That better?
 

"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.

Yeah, there ya go 'sinny'!

Yes you can get away with treating High School girls quite AFCly sometimes - mainly because they don't really know any better (give them a couple of years), lol.

Plus, the fact that one girl likes you, means that you've got something going for ya and some social proof (you dog, you!).

So, to wrap up, i'd definitely LJBF'd the friend (do that away from the girl you actually like), and remeber to kino and escalate the girl you like.
