"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.

Our prom is like in May or July, but my parents keep pressuring me to find out if ive asked someone to prom. My cuz made a pretty valid point today to me though: i should ask before someone else does. My thing is its gonna be like showing up to a party an hour early, you'll look like a loser with nothing better to do. So, what time would you guys ask for prom date?
 

"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.

I would just date girls and then chose if you want to take them. If you get them dating you then around prom time they will most likely want to go with you anyway. Plus you build some rapport with them.

I feel this way because i had a girlfriend in high school who i waited till 1 month before asking her. She was rejecting this other guy (multiple times) and her best friends kept asking me if i was going to ask her. Eventually did.

In my high school, I remember everyone asking everyone out around January-February. I think I asked my date early February.
