"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'm the manager at my work, and I met one of my buddies through their, me and him are pretty close now...except i'm finding out how much of a piece of **** he is and how bad of a person he is.

We went out on a double date, and his date had to be home...so it was just me, my date, and him hanging out. I walked away for a few seconds and when I come back the girl tells me that he tried to kiss her. I can't get in a fight with the guy...because then i'm risking my job and I look unprofessional...and I can't fire him over personal reasons either, especially since he is a decent employee.

Just not sure what to do in this situation, he pulls stuff like this all the time, and i am really close to beating his ass. i've confronted him about it before, and i'm going to talk to him about it again today...so we'll see how this goes. anyone have other suggestions?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Just hang out with him in non double date situations or situations where you are not with a girl.

That or just stop being friends with him and keep your relationship strictly business.

I agree with Kontroller. Don't risk losing you job because of this guy. Just avoid him and keep the relationship strictly work.

stop hanging out with this.
give him the cold shoulder so that he gets the message that you are no longer friends.

why would you hang out or associate with someone like this?

unless you think your girl is lying, if you think thats a possibility then you gotta ask him if he tried to kiss her and find out who is lying.
