"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.
Bad fad: girls wearing dorky glasses

"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.

you can always take glasses off and you wouldn't be turned off.

That's the most ignorant sh!t I will ever see.
Chicks with big glasses means more space for me to blow a load on.

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

This s--- was all the rage on the Upper West Side and Chelsea. Then it spread to the malls of suburbia. This was back when girls actually left the house to go out on the weekend instead of jerking around on facebook.
Aww ****, Lisa Loeb. Welcome to my crush circa 1994. In the running with Wynona Ryder and Joan Osborne at the time. I'm sure she's still hot as fvck.BigJimbo said:
Anyway, as you all can see I used to LOVE those glasses on a girl. I don't anymore. The glasses seem to be on all girls. Can't stand when my weird thing is embraced by everyone. Besides as I age my glasses get thicker and thicker and two of us with thick glasses is just one too much.
Honorable mention to old-school Tina Fey!
