"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.

Has anyone noticed that FOREX thread just won't die. Everytime I look, it's at the top of the Anything Else section.

I mean the guy that started it got banned. He admitted he made up half the shiit on this board, yet his thread lives on and on and on.

Is this thread pointless? Maybe...

Or maybe, because it has the word Forex in the title it will be at the top of Anything Else til Christmas.;)
 

"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.

If you hate it that much just start some political debate in there or something.

The people who post in that thread are mature enough to hit the "Report" button and continue on with what we were doing.

I like the idea of making it a political debate. Toss in religion for some added spice and BAMM!! We're good to do! :up:

It might be about some girl?

It's funny how you hate Forex so much when you don't even know what it is.

HAHAHA! You are such a dumbass. :cheer:


Forex is the Foreign Exchange market. Its about trading currencies. You know how some currecncies fluctuate? (ie: Canadian vs American dollar goes up and down...) Well money can be made off that. Buy it when its low, sell it when its high.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
