"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.

Is confidence correlated with how we look? If you just woke up outta bed with bad breath, your is unkept, your clothes aren't ironed, do you still approach or is it the whole package of things? Such as I know I can get her number because my hair is cut, i have some fresh clothes on, and I'm a student in college. Do you still approach when you're not at your best?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

My grandma always said to look you best all the time as you never know who you might meet even if you are just popping around the corner to the local 24/7 store - and she was right..

She also said never go fishing off the company pier - she was right again !!

Looking good and confidence go hand in hand - make the effort

Good Question.

I believe the way I feel has a lot to do with how I come across to others. I feel better about my self after I have taken a shower put on some clothes that make me feel like myself and a dab of smell good. I worry less when I am comfortable with myself and my appearance.

If I take the time to look the way I want and I am happy with myself. Than I did all I could and if somebody doesn't like it, than they have the problem not me.

I wouldn’t lose my confidence if I wasn’t so fresh and so clean.

It would be like talking to somebody and wondering if your breath stinks. You would have it in the back of your mind along with wishing you had some gum.

It would be more of a distraction than anything else.

So in regards to me, and me only, yes confidence is correlated with how I look.

Your appearance and how you feel DEFINITELY affects your confidence. The more comfortable you are with yourself the more outgoing you're gonna be with other people.

Kinda similar when they say love yourself before loving other people.
