"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.

Hey man, I started reading for fun again recently after only reading for school/self help. I have a couple suggestions in my approach journal. Check it out and let me know if you want more detail. The best one so far is Killing Time by Frank Tallis

Try Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield. Historical fiction set in Ancient Sparta.
 

"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.

How To Make Love Like A Porn Star
Jenna Jameson's Auto Biography

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

-World Without End (Ken Follet)
-First Man in Rome (Can't remember the author...)
-The Agony and the Ecstasy (Irving Stone)
-The Godfather (Mario Puzo...better than the movie)
-The House of the Spirits (Allende, historical fiction in Chile)
-Anything by Michael Criton (sp?), especially Jurassic Park, Timeline, and Sphere
