"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.

Hello again. I read a post by somebody earlier saying that having a Wingman usually shouts "Desperation". I always thought that having a Wingman with you whilst approaching would give you social value, back you up in dodgy situations and also stop you looking like a loner. Those are the reasons why I have a Wingman, also the fact that we give each other motivation as to not look like a coward :) So what are your ideas on Wingmen? Good or bad?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yeah, at the moment I'm practising on sets that don't have males in, or if they do, then only if it's clear that the guy is not going to be a very Alpha sorta guy (AFC Friend of the girls). So AMOG is not important right now, although I'm not sure if my wingman could deal with an AMOG yet anyway. So it's obvious what the good points are? What are the bad points?

Here is one possible point, although it can be overcome:
If you have a bad wingman, it could reduce your status?

Haha my wing's not an *******, but I was thinking more along the sub-conscious lines anyway. I'll just take it that having a Wing is far better than going lone, with many more benefits than there are negative points. :cheer:
Well I'm glad I've cleared up another part of my game up. I'm out gaming tommorow so I'll need a good night's sleep so I feel awake and energetic. Night all.
