"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.

cool or not? I am a civilian.

Also, what about biker leather jackets for non-bikers?
 

"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.

It depends on your fashion coordination, i.e. what else you're wearing. Biker look? Yeah, military watch could fit well. Classic men's fashion? Go with a dress watch, or dive watch if a little more casual. As long as you're not wearing a smart watch.

I recommend anyone who is starting to get into watches to check out Seiko's Presage series. Seikos are generally more affordable than most quality watch brands while still being high quality with their own in-house movements, etc.

Fitbits are for women.
Get a smartwatch if you need to monitor your heart rate when you have heart problems.
Or a Suunto GPS watch if you want to pretend to be SF. Or one of those bulky compasses.
Or people who are in far better shape than you that actually take it seriously.
 

"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.
