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.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
You do fun stuff often, but not all the time. Go out with her, forget about her a little bit, go out with her again. Leave her thinking "how did I do?"Originally posted by Maeisgood
Hard to get
You are supposed to act like you are not interested. It has been said to offically be "going out" you have to do stuff often. How do you do both?

These "kiss test" things seem like random kissing. The "right moment" seems hard to find. If I randomly kiss her neck, cheek, or lips then she might go "WTF are you doing?!" and then everyone'll find out how I got by butt handed to me AND was vagina-whipped. It would leave a Scarlet-letter scar. It might drive future women away from me. Women spread news like bird flu.

All of the times I've kissed girls I basically just grabbed my balls (although feeling nervous inside), and did it.Originally posted by Maeisgood
Good points.
It seems hard to live a brash thing like that down and recover.
Does anyone have a story about a successful kiss test and an unsuccessful one?
