"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.

Hey all, I've been lurking in these forums for quite a while, and I have to say I've grown to have a lot of respect for (most of) you. As such, I was wondering if ye might be willin' to give me some feedback on the following method of asking a girl to prom.

2 origami rose heads, spraypainted (very artfully if I do say so myself) yellow, taped on either side of a printed artwork of a pencil sketch rose, with the following words underneath it:

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
My spray paint is yellow...

...will you go to Prom with me?

I'm goin for the quirky vaguely funny route since I feel thats most likely the quality that she likes in me (as of this posting I've built up a nice repoir w/ her, and the word on the street(read: halls) is that she is waiting for me to ask her)

thoughts? Comments? Monkeys?

Thanks

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

If she's waiting for you to ask her, it doesn't really matter how. That way is fine.

If she's not, though, then I wouldn't advise that route. The straight up, confident approach would fit better.

Since you say she is supposedly waiting for you to do it, go with your plan.

Sounds like you already made your mind up on what you want to do and are just looking for reassurance about it. Sure, it's a good idea, you might get her to laugh, and since she likes you anyway it really doesn't matter how you ask her.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
