"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.

Snippets from an MSN conversation.

dont be selfish. i offered
what did you offer?
to set you up with a good decent guy with a future. you wanted no part
who's this guy?
you're curious
just wanna know who it is
he's 24. engineer
that really means nothing to me
well what do you want to know
what's his name?
********
is he tamil?
yes
what's his down side?
huh? what kind of question is that
what's bad about him?
wow
everyone has their good points. what matters is the bad, that's the deciding factor
well thats for you to figure out right
no. i rather know up front. if he's your friend you should know

i wouldnt hang with him if he's not a good guy
yeh but what do you not like about him? or is he a mama's boy?
somewhat
anyway, i don't like that
what?
mama's boys
he's not
you just said he is somewhat
he's not a guy looking to score on the first night. if you want a guy like that he's not it
i said i didn't want a mama's boy. how did you connect that with scoring on the first night? but if he's a mama's boy....i'm not interested. i'm sure he's got lots of great qualities
i dont get it
i can't tolerate mama's boys
HE IS NOT A MAMA'S BOY
you said he was somewhat
no his mom doesnt tie his shoe laces or wipe his ass. but does he live at home? yes
that's not really what constitutes a mama's boy. that's just a spoiled child
so what do you mean by a mama's boy. i dont think were on the same page here
does he deffer to his mother's opinion for everything?
if he still deferred to his mom he's not coming out clubbing on richmond st. friday nite
maybe his mom doesn't object
i dont know i havent met his mom. but he's a good guy funny smart. good job

why's he single?
says he hasnt found the right one
that's what everyone says
well thats true. why are you single
i'm just a mean, mean person
he's single by choice. but he knows me. and knowing what i know of you onilne you would click
why would you wanna set up your friend with someone who you says acts like an entitled princess?
because believe it or not some guys actually dig that
if that's why you think we'd click. then you got it all wrong. obviously. i'm a nice person. hmpf

i know. and he is too. what else did you want to konw
who knows. is he hot?
he's a good looking guy
i see
i see i've piqued your interest
meh. how tall is he?
average. taller than you
i like really tall guys. 5'10" +
that's tall?
it's gotta be mroe than that. but that will do
yeh. sounds right
kk

u know what. what do you have to offer
i never said i was offering anything :S
lol at ur checklist
hmm?
dont care about his interests, dont care abotu what he's into, dont care about his head or his heart.the stuff that matters
from what you said i gathered he's a nice guy. that's why i asked what's wrong with him
lol, u just instantly have to find some way to discredit him.

so you want to talk to this guy ?
talk to him? now?
no. ill pass ur digits on to him
no. i don't want my number passed around
so you want his number?
no. whenever all three of us are online. add him in or something. i don't really wanna talk on the phone and stuff. it's too forced anc cliche
haha waht is this high school still
i don't like set ups. rather not do that
k ill get him online soontimes.

How do you guys think I played that?

It honestly seems like you'd be doing him a disservice to hook him up with a girl that has that sort of attitude. It's hard to get tone of voice and such from text, but she seems just a little bit *****y.

Ummmm, dude, if he's really a friend i'd steer him away from this bit-h. Wow. Why are you even friends with this downer?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Looks to me like she was just being *****y since what spinaroonie was blabbin' would have came across as quite condescending.

He's you're friend, so why are you dumping this ***** on him? Get someone nice for him at least
