"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I was relaxing last night and noticed a show that a HB and I are both fanatics of happened to be on TV at 11pm. For background, we get along very well, great rapport, she tagged along with me to my friend's super bowl get-together this past weekend. Because we were making references to the show in class earlier in the day, I texted her that I found it on TV and that it apparently has a regular time slot.

While we normally get back to each other quite quickly, I didn't hear from her. There's a chance her text was messed up because there was a mark next to her name on my phone, but w/e. Anyway, I get a text at 3:00 AM from her (I forgot to turn off the sound on my phone before I went to sleep), she apologized for not getting back to me, as she just noticed the text then. Obviously, I waited until this morning to make fun of her for it, then briefly clarified how our show is on TV.

There could be a million reasons for it, but...Why would a girl text/try to establish contact at 3am on a weeknight?
 

"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.

Seriously. Why over analyze this. Girls do weird things some times, get over it. It means nothing.

Ring her up and tell her to come see this programme with you. Then escalate.

High interest, perhaps?

okok I get it. I didn't think it was anything big. She did text me out of the blue a little while ago explaining why she sent the text though (fell asleep early, randomly woke up and saw it). Interesting, but as you said, really means nothing.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Don't get me wrong, now. This girl might be attracted to you, and even if you aren't sure, you being attracted to her is what really matters. That said, do not waste time analyzing every single little thing girls say and do. Stress and dwelling on that stuff BLOWS.
