"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.

"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.

Thats completley fine.

Shes over 16 so its fair game. I was 20 and dating a just turned 17 year old.

Im 21 and had a 17 year old the other night.....

Keep it above 16 and you got no issues......(legally)......(in the UK)

At the end of the day....I know a 21 year old who is seeing a 16 year old.

A few people have seen it as being wrong.

They are both of legal age....They are not doing anything wrong....plus they really like each other and work well together so all i can say is good going on them. Not falling to social peer pressure.

Im 21 and naturally look about 16-17. I generally only go for girls of about 17-21 because thats my releative age gap. I have had a 15 year old come on to me and i pushed her away like she was cancer. I can get sex without having to be named a pedo thanks.....

I think that the main problem with this would be the maturity gap.... otherwise, no problem.

Eh, 16 is pushing it for me. When I see an older guy dating a younger girl like that I just think he can't attract women his own age so he has to go look elsewhere.

Let me help you out.

Yay! No problem whatsoever, man. I'm currently hooking up with a gorgeous 16 year old gal and I'm 20. It's all good if it's legal.

Back to the topic. Age is techinically a number. If the maturity is there, then it's all good. You can take it two ways, either the oldest of the two is immature, or the youngest of the two is very mature. Either way, if it works for them, and it's legal, it's fine.

When I was in 6th/7th grade I was dating an 8th/9th grader, so I know how this goes.

Lol, thanks guys for the responses I was hoping for.


I just wanted to make sure, it's not like I look old but I'm really tall 6'5" so I wanted a little peace of mind.

When I see and older guy with a woman his age, I just think that he doesn't have the money to attract a nice tight little 18 year old. :D
 

"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.

The quote from that movie actually goes like this:

"Every year, I get older, but they still stay the SAME age."
