"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 met this girl at work. we dont work together, she works at the store my company is restoring. We seem to have a connection, but i couldnt talk to her because we were working. that job ended today, and now i cant stop thinking about her. I'll probably never see her again and i only know her first name, and she did'nt give it to me. I am thinking of sending her roses and a card asking her to let me get to know her. Is this a smart thing to do. how should i go about this pursuit if not? I have a very strong feeling about her. Thanks:confused:
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

find a reason to go back in and speak to her face to face!!

sending flowers without knowing her is sorta stalkerish!

deliver the invoice and take it to her.

I just cant get her out of my head. she could'nt look at me when we talked. We shared casual glances across the store. i feel theres somthing there. I cant let it go. and ya your probably right about the stalking thing. No flowers will be sent.

LOL stop kidding around man! There have been many posts recently that appear to be jokes (ie. see "cold approaches dawg"), but in this case I will assume you are not joking...

reebo72, your feelings for her are getting seriously out of hand! From just 1 brief encounter, you are coming on way too strong! Even in the unlikely chance that you happen to randomly meet her again, you will scare her away if you keep up this state of infatuation.

What you can do:
- look your best
- have a fun/friendly/playful attitude
- dont be so damn focused on chasing women!!!
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
