"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.

a lot of guys are bitter because they aren't having enough sex.

These days the average 20 year old girl has slept with 10 guys, while some 20 year old men are still virgins or haven't slept with more than 3 girls. Those that are bitter are mad because they cannot get sex from girls that are sexually active.

just a thought.
 

"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.

Are you sure about your statistics?
I thought the average number of life time partners for both genders was around 10.
One important point is that averages are hardly worth the paper they are written on. put a succesful PUA in a room with 9 guys, half of whom are virgins, and the average will still be in double figures at least.

In reply to your point, Im not sure that its bitterness. In my case its mainly fraustration with myself for being unable to act in many situations where I know I could. I also feel that emotions of self hatred and helplessness are present in many cases. I have felt a wide range of emotions myself in relations to women, seldom bitterness.
I feel that bitter men are most likely bitter for a combination of reasons, not just any problems they may have with women.

Girls are generally much more picky about who they'll sleep with. All guys want the HB10's, but many are willing to settle for the 4's and 5's, just to have some female companionship and validation. Since women can get sex more easily, they are only interested in the top 10%. They can get average sex any day of the week. Why? Because guys are more aggressive about pursuing sex. Even if some guys are not so aggressive (like me), there will always be some mindless idiot out there approaching like a douche, so girls can count on getting at least some sex without putting forth any effort.

I guess bitter wasn't the correct word.

frustrated would be a better one.

Hints the word A Frustrated C
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
