"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.

How long? (Time)

Okay so a simple question really.

How long should/would you wait before you ask a work colleague out?

So background info;

Started at a new place of work, planning on being there a while/career. Met a nice girl who I would like to take out.

Do I get to know her for a bit first or just bite the bullet?

Main reason for the question is because I know dating at work can be complicated but tbh I dont care.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Gauge her interest level. If its already really high, just ask.

But... if you plan on being there a while with a career might want to not act at all. Drama and mad women in the workplace is strenuous and can cause tension between you and your boss.

If you're not going to care... Proceed with extreme caution!!! You'll be sorry if you don't.

See the question asked was how long, not should I haha

Rejection or Regret... Right?

Thanks Jarton for mention the interest level I think its quite high so Il prob go for it mid week
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

No, you don't try to get to know her a bit first. That kills mystery and you'll just be another co worker that she yaps to about. There's also no definite time frame. If she's attracted you just get her phone number and text to ask her out. Just like any other girls.

You don't.

You must not plan on being there long if want to f*ck your co-workers.

Main reason for the question is because I know dating at work can be complicated but tbh I dont care.
So you don't care about your co-workers knowing intimate details about your personal life?

You don't care about potentially getting a bad reputation (deserved or otherwise,) in the workplace?

You don't care about how you're going to handle male co-workers trying to holla at your chick?

You don't care about the distraction this may cause?

You don't care about having to see this board everyday at work when the relationship ends?

You don't care about potentially being terminated because of sexual harassment?

Besides, why do you want to see her all day everyday?

yeah, sadly, the majority of my girlfriends/flings have been with people i have worked with, so i cant say dont do it if you are madly attracted. however, if it ends badly, you WILL mess up your work environment. Get with her and push her out the door... meaning job. Or else.

Yeh man totally understand, I also understand people trying to talk me out of this, but yeh I like this girl and would be after a relationship not a quickie, in my line of work I wouldnt see her everyday 90% of the time she would be working in a different area of the place, and id say 70% of people that work at my place or other establishments are in relationships or married to each other.

Also to add we are working away on a training course for a few month so this time is ideal

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Definitely wait till you both are flirting on the regular....Where flirting becomes your relationship with her. Ie; everytime you guys are together at work, its just fun, laughs, flirting..

I mean it would have been helpful if you said what type of job it was, but no prob. Stick to the rule ^ you'll be fine.

Reminder to all:

Direct personal attacks will be deleted. You can say anything negative you want, just don't engage in direct name-calling.

How about instead of deleting people's post, you delete the threads of of those who clearly only made the thread to get people to concur with their preconceived plan of action. This dude doesn't want advice, he wants us to co-sign his f*ckery.
 

"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.

Yeah. I don't know what his problem is. It seem like some kind of mental illness or something. It's one thing to say that dating from work is a bad idea, but it's overboard to keep trying to hammer it in. Maybe he actually got reject from a coworker before and got a sexual harassment suit slam on him for having bad game.
