How to use the 3-second rule to help you hook up with someone

This rule is simple if you see someone you want to hook up with, make your move within 3 seconds or you'll lose your chance. This rule can help you get over your shyness and make the first move without having to worry about rejection.

So what's crucial?  

  • Confidence 
  • Body language 
  • Approachability 

If you see someone you're interested in, it's important to be confident and make your move within those first 3 seconds. The longer you wait, the more likely it is that you'll lose your opportunity. 

Body language is also key-you want to make sure you look approachable and open to conversation.  Smiling and making eye contact are always good indicators that you're interested in talking to someone. 

Lastly, remember to be approachable! If you're looking down at your phone or seem disinterested, the other person is likely to write you off as not being worth their time. So put away your phone, make some eye contact, and strike up a conversation!

Destroy the loser mindset  

The 3-second rule is all about being confident and taking risks. If you approach someone within those first 3 seconds, the worst that can happen is they say no. But if you don't make a move, you'll never know what could have happened. So get rid of your loser mindset and go for it!

3 seconds may not seem like much, but it can make all the difference when it comes to hooking up with someone. So next time you see someone you're interested in, don't hesitate-make your move and see what happens!
