"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.

I left a short message but she said her full name so I looked her up on facebook and we have 4 mutual friends, all female and one is my cousin. I don't think I should bring it up in case she thinks it is creepy or something but at the same time all these girls could tell her how great I am. At this point I'm planning on keeping this in my back pocket for a while, what do you think?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Back pocket, for sure!

EDIT: I wanna add something to this.

but at the same time all these girls could tell her how great I am.
I once thought this was a good idea. I had 2 friends that knew a girl I was trying to hook up with and I had them mention me to her. Turns out, even when girls/women think they are helping, they are likely saying some things that could hurt your chances. Let her find out about you herself. Don't let other peoples opinions of you determine her own, even if in theory they are good opinions.

Correct.

You don't want other girls talking about you. They'll say something stupid, or they'll build you up as some "nice guy".

Don't get other girls involved. In romance and in life, keep as many things under your control as possible. You dictate this girls' opinion of you....not others.
