"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.

I think you already have the answer to your last question. You can make her into an FB in your mind but in hers itll never be that way, even if she agrees to go along with it.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

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.

realsmoothie, good for you to update and the thread and more so on the way you handled the situation. It was decent, respectable, and most importantly, it will not invite the bad karma. One needs that when back in the single world!

It's been tough. Haven't had much success being single for the last couple of weeks, which is really surprising since I was being hit on by every angle when I was with girlfriend.

So I'm harder than ice in Antarctica (oops, well, before global warming) pretty much 24/7, and am even fantasizing about my ex now. We're actually supposed to see a movie tonight (BALLS OF FURY), but other people will be there so hopefully nothing will happen.
