"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 a question for the moderators (or anyone else who might be able to help) - I was trying to add an attachment (an image) to one of my posts just now, looked up how to go about it in FAQ, but when i came to write the reply, there was a message saying 'You may not post attachments'.

Why is that? - I've seen lots of other people with pictures attached to their posts, are only certain members allowed to do so?
 

"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.

Moderators and admins can post attachments.

I don't really see the need for it at all.

Sorry, I'm not following you. I'm not sure if attachment is the right word for it but specifically, I'm wanting to transfer photos from my computer (which i've transferred onto my computer from my phone) into my posts.

I don't understand why you say its only for moderators and admin cos i've seen plenty of normal users like myself with pictures and attachments in their posts - such as a thread titled 'Post your picture only', and guys who've included photos in field reports.

There may be summat really obvious i've missed here but i really can't see where i'm going wrong - if anyone can, then please put me to rights!!

"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.
