"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.

i couldnt find any definite answers on the internet or the search button here, so i figured id ask the guys here at the health n fitness forum. as u can probably guess from the title, i currently have a cold, sore/itchty throat, cough, congestion, but i think the worst is over. now its just the annoying time where it settles in my sinus's and i cough my left lung up. normally i wouldnt stress out about taking a week off, its good to let the body get a good recovery once in a while. unfortunetely the last couple weeks ive been on vacation, so my regular routine hasnt been done in a while, and i dont wanna go 3 straight weeks without doing anything. in a little over 2 weeks ill be trying out for the varsity tennis team at my university so i need to be in my best physical condition. generally i do a lot of conditioning, biking, swimming, sprinting, actually playint tennis, weight lifting, so i was wondering if a light routine would be ok or not. extending my recovery time because i pushed my body is definetely not an option, but sitting on my butt isnt exactly something i wanna do. any input would be appreciated.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

If you feel you're physically up for it, go for it. Otherwise, rest and recover.
 

"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 lifted while I had strep throat. Actually made me feel better. I used to go to swimming practice while sick because it made me feel better. Just make sure you wipe EVERYTHING down.
