"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.

guys the tune in the background at the start of Mase tell me what you want.

sounds like a girl group from the late 90s, help please

 

"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.

Pretty sure it’s Brandy. And the production sounds like something from her 1995 debut album, although this specific tune is not on it.

When I think of R&B, I think of something like this:

Don't know if this is what you're looking for but the exact sampled song is Curtis Mayfield - Right On For The Darkness.

Edit: Just realized, you were probably talking about the song quietly playing in the background during the skit in the beginning.

ill take a look
thanks
Alright, I found the actual background song in the video:

Faith Evans was on the same label as Mase. They were big on featuring songs (and cameos) by label mates in videos to garner interest for their new and upcoming artists. That's why I figured it'd be unlikely for them to feature a song by Brandy in 1995, when she was competing for the same audience as Faith Evans. Both singers debuted in 1995.

Thanks for reminding me to dig into Curtis Mayfield's catalog, amazing work
