Please make the link and link:visited colors more distinct. I have to focus to see if I've read a certain thread or not; I'd like to be able to do it without thinking. Make the two colors contrast more.
"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.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
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.

I suppose it varies depending on your monitor, but on my LCD it's very obvious. I'll check it out on some others.

On both my monitor at work and my monitor at home, the two colors seem very close together. Perhaps bitrot and I both have some sort of color-blindness but I also have difficulty discerning which threads I have visited and which I haven't.

I'm on a CRT and having trouble telling the difference. I'll try it on my LCD when I go back to college and report.

It's a lot better now.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
