You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
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.
Yeah, big industry definitely killed off the electric car early on. I'm no expert in electrical engineering, but I think that is called electrical induction, which I think is slightly less efficient than electrical conduction through a wire connection. Nowadays it would be easy to account for electrical consumption by induction.Bible_Belt said:I believe in the future the solution will be cars with electric motors and all street will have a power grid that cars tap into. This would give electric cars lightweight, and almost unlimited power and driving range.
Tesla found a way to transmit electricity without wires; he could do it between two metal plates. He had a crazy idea to make the surface of the Earth one plate and a layer of the atmosphere the other, and transmit power for free all over the planet, but but story goes that JP Morgan pulled his funding for the project, questioning "but where do I put the meter?" Free power is not profitable.
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.
