"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.

Just a thought here ... maybe some opinions would help me out.

I understand the purpose of the 2 strike rule, and I understand there are exceptions because she might actually be busy and not flaking. How about a situation where you've been hooking up for months ... over 6. How does the rule go then?

Like for example if I propose a day, she is busy the entire holiday etc. Do girls really clear their schedule for guys if their IL is high? I wouldn't clear mine for a 10 because it's a matter of principle: she can wait. Maybe it's the same, I don't know. I just don't know how far to push it before I consider it flaking, because I took her virginity two months ago and to my knowledge she hasn't since with anyone else. Yeah ...
 

"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.

When it comes to your case you already been hooking up for months and the 2 strikes rule doesn't really apply (it's for the first stage of relationships). HOWEVER, you could use it to keep yourself in check in terms of keeping yourself from being toyed around by women.

For example if she just keeps flaking, ignoring your calls etc you could say "alright i'm going to apply the 2 strikes rule starting on thursday when I ask her out to go to the movies on the weekend."

If she gets strike 1 by flaking on you then follow the procedure. You make another attempt when you feel like it and if she strikes out again you say "ok 2 strikes i'm letting this b|tch cool off for a while" and start focusing on other women. You don't call her anymore, text her, give her the NC treatment for a bit, you let her re-initiate contact and you accept on your terms.

That's what the 2 strike rule does it keeps you from being toyed around with and ending up like countless guys that keep on chasing women for weeks and even months that lost interest. It's much better to use the 2 strikes rule than to keep focusing your energy on a b|tch that has gone cold on you. It's a good reminder that "ok this girl got 2 strikes already I should focus my energy on other girls for now" or else who knows when you'll stop (and how much time you'll waste).
