"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.

Sup. ever since i started smoking weed, which was like 7 months ago, ive been more social. I dont mean social during my "high" but even times when im not high, i am more social. Is it really the weed that changed me? Should i keep smoking it, or stop and see what happens?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

It's a hobby that's kind of harmless and pointless but makes you feel good, it gives you an identity a lot of teenagers do it and it gives them more of an immature confidence that you can and do smoke drugs.

Yeah I noticed that when I started smoking weed 3-4 years ago.

Before I started I was always too edgy, too nervous, always thinking about **** waaaaaaay too much. I noticed that when I was high, I wasn't that social but when I wasn't high I was definitely more laid back, more chill around people.

I've stopped smoking so much recently though. As much as I love smoking weed, it slows you the FVCK down. Makes you kinda stupid. And I'm trying to harness my edgier, more active side anyway.

Just don't let yourself rely on it as a social crutch.

I too smoke weed. My mates all say im the most chilled out person they know. Really easy to get on with and perfect in crisis situations.

They say this about me when im not high. It will change your social aspect. Normally for the better (Depending on useage).

Its a very hard drug to get truely addicted to as it doesnt have any addictive components. The only thing mildly addictive about it is the feeling. Which can be overcome.

If its made you a better person why stop? Dont rely on it like others said but it will make you more chilled/social.

Makes a good isolate line too. If the girl likes that kinda thing.


Sarge On!
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Whatever negative effects that pot has would show up in Belize and Jamaica. Maybe those people are a little lazy and not especially motivated, but they are certainly not dying of cancer and going crazy.
