whats your opinion on business cards?
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.
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.
This is funny you asked that, because Saturday a girl gave me her business card. And I said something like, "I don't normally call people at their work, what's your cell number?" She gave it to me. I would always get the cell number too.KneghtRyder said:whats your opinion on business cards?
Aye. In agreement. I used to get work #s at first, and they staled quickly. Now its either cell or I TTYL.ketostix said:This is funny you asked that, because Saturday a girl gave me her business card.

i always hear conflicting answers on that one. Some people say leave the message, some say dont. Is that a judgement call or what?Obsidian said:business cards sometimes have a cell on them, I think. but yeah, I usually ask specifically for the cell #
In some ways, I guess a non-cell # might be good. Cell phones always have call waiting, and it's usually not a good idea to leave either
1) a voice message or
2) multiple missed calls
on a girl's cell before you've actually gone out with her.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
