"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.

Having returned to school recently, I came across a great site with a few good articles on college dating. I saw something that I wish came out during my freshman year. I figure it's better to put it here than the high school threads, but feel free to check it out.

http://www.collegedatingtips.org/get-laid-college-freshmen

What I learned that any D-Juan, regardless of age, can get out of it:

-First Impressions MATTER: this is a universal rule in and out of college. Have your style fit the age group and fit the niche. In this case, it mentioned owning a cardigan or two, and a great pair of jeans. Oh, and grooming, always a must.

-Make many friends ASAP: Whatever niche or enviroment you're in, make friends, and do it fast. Be the first to break the ice and build your status EARLY.

-Try some low pressure dates with you women: concerts, lunch with friends, sometimes even starbucks. Why go excessive? Sometimes the simple does the trick.

I basically cliff-noted the page I saw, but if you want, take a look. It's worth a check out.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

The sunny side of the street.
It seems like I unwittingly did all that when I was a freshman in college. But there's really nothing new or ground-breaking mentioned in that article; at least nothing that you wouldn't get from the DJ Bible.

And also, it depends on where you go to college. Colleges have a tendency to be dynamic depending on where in the country/region you go.

As a college sophomore I can tell you... almost everyone in college dresses like sh!t. Dress slightly better in any way (whether its preppy, gangster, hipster or your own style) and you're already much farther ahead of the pack. People see you and automatically gravitate to you, then its your job to keep up the rest of the game.
