"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.

Hi,

I'm a fat guy - but I've lost 70 pounds in the past 6 months and am down to 220 from 290 (6'0" tall).

Is it too early for me to start trying to develop game and approach women? I think I could lose at least 40 more pounds if I really kept with my program.

I haven't had sex in 5 years except once with a prostitute 2 years ago (in a foreign country so it was kind of a unique situation) and I feel like I'm wasting my life away.

I don't think I have the personality to ever be a player, I just want to find a wife and start a family since I'm 30. My issue is that if I waited maybe the quality of woman I could attract would increase significantly? I would expect to be shot down 99% of the time if I tried right now.

Thanks in advance on your decision - wait or start now?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Approaching will burn some more calories and possibly raise testosterone which will help you with further fat loss.

Quick test. If you can look down and see your ****, it's safe to start approaching.

My advice would be to just get into conversational practice with women (and men, too) in your day-to-day, without any outcome-dependence whatsoever.

When you sharpen a knife against a stone, you expect nothing but a sharpened knife. Later the knife will do its cutting having been honed with precision.

The better question is: Why would you wait?

Being 230 didn't stop me, even before I was considering slimming down to 156.
 

"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.
