"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Cute, but here's a real routine if you want one. Start at the lowest level and do each level twice before you move on. So if you work your abs twice a week, you're looking at 9 weeks for the whole thing. Here's what I do:

Monday: Legs
Tuesday: Abs
Wednesday: Back/Biceps
Thursday: Abs
Friday: Chest/Shoulders/Triceps
Sat/Sun: Rest

If you want my entire weightlifting routine, its under 'intermediate 3-way split' in this thread: link

P.S. If you have no idea what leg thrusts are, try to remember one of those old Chinese Kung-Fu movies that show Shaolin monks pounding the stone floor with their legs. That's it. Leg thrusts are basically step-kicks.

15 seconds rest

Confuzed..

Okay.. I try to keep up on terminology (dunno if it's a word.. but who cares.. I'm using it..) about weight stuff and fitness (sh!tness if you're refering to my body) but what are some of those things..knee rockback? hanging knee/leg raise? crunches? leg thrusts? (I haven't seen any old Kung-Fu movies) *looks to DVDs and sees "Revenge of the Dragon".. does that count?*

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
