Reading Her Body

Maybe you even thought you had a great conversation going and then all of sudden it’s like someone just flipped a switch and suddenly she’s no longer interested…shot down….again…

I’d wonder what I said and what I did. It crushed my self confidence and eventually I got to the point where I just hated going out to try to meet girls.

I’d never know what to say, how to act, and sometimes I’d get shot down even before I got close enough to buy her a drink, and try out some of my “great pick up lines”.

One day I was hanging out with my old college room mate, Jon, and we were talking over a beer at one of the local bars.

The thing was, I didn’t care. I’d given up trying to meet anyone and Jon had a great girlfriend, so he wasn’t there to check out the women.

I wasn’t buying what he was selling. There was absolutely no way she wanted anything to do with me. But Jon kept pushing me.

I was amazed at how Jon somehow knew she was interested in me and I had to ask how he spotted the signs and I couldn’t.

Jon told me that it was simple…her body was telling him everything he needed to know, I just needed to know what to look for…

I had completely forgotten that he had spent the last several years working in courtrooms next to talented people that picked jurors and he also worked with criminal profilers who’s job it was to read people’s body language.

But it went way beyond that. Apparently Jon had been spending a lot of time since we were roommates learning everything…
