"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.

Dating is actually a woman thing. Dating is a social institution created for women. [/B]Guys just want to get a b1owjob while watching the game. Don't feel bad for feeling like a guy.

Think about it.......Dating is supposed to be about you and her. "you and her" can happen anywhere, including your couch. But for the woman, it is not about you and her, it is about her and her FANTASY.

For most guys, dating is just a means to an end.
Ever see those "Match.com" commercials? The guys in every commercial act like women on the dates. That stuff MUST be scripted.

If it isn't scripted........oh boy. :mad:

Canada, eh?
Thats the case when you want to get laid only. People do seek companionship and actually like to leave the house, you know. That sounds like apathy to me.

Each to their own.

I love dating - getting out and meeting people is interesting, but then I guess I'm a people person. It doesn't have to be women per say - I like going out with people from work, from my rugby club or just chatting to randoms you meet whilst you're out.

It sounds a little like you find the whole thing a bit hard because you're self concious. Meeting people should be a relaxed and enjoyable thing.

Meeting a girl and having a drink should be something you enjoy - it shouldn't stress you out. Even if you decide she's not worth a pop, at least you've got a funny story.

Otherwise...what do you talk about with your mates when you meet up?
'What have you been up to this week?'. 'Nothing'. 'Oh...'.

Grab life by the balls, or sit back and wait for it to kick you in them.

I see what you mean,and I agree and as you I refused many date simply because the disturb wasn't worth any possible good outcome.

The best thing is to spend time with a girl in a friendly stressless environment unlike an expensive bar or a crowded nightclub,even worse is if the "date" is a struggle to keep her attention from her friends "happening" to be there.

I find it better to just do something togheter where the focus is doing something instead of jsut socializing,rock climbing or a walk are better for sure than a table with drink.

hmm i really like this.
 

"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.
