"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 just recently had an eye exam through an optometrist like 3 months ago for prescription for glasses but now I want to get contacts to help with my image. I was wondering if I need to go see my optometrist again in order to get contacts or can I just use my prescription from my glasses to get contacts? I would prefer not to pay again ($90) to see her since it was only 3 months ago, but if I have to, then I guess I have to.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Call and ask, they might include the contact exam with the $90 or give you a discount.

I've worn contacts for the past 12 years but recently got a backup set of glasses, IIRC I saw a different eye doctor in the office and he put me through a separate set of tests (was also renewing my contacts at the time).

As far as getting contacts.. best thing you'll ever do. You'll wonder why you waited so long. The brand of contacts I use is "proclear" and they are very comfortable, never have dry eyes or irritation. It takes a little patience to work them smoothly, but after a few weeks or months, you won't look back.

You do need to see the optometrist again.

Consider getting surgery, I had PRK done and it is nice not having to deal with glasses/contacts.

You'll need a new exams and probably a new prescription for the contact lenses. Contact lens exams are different from the regular eye exam. With contact exams, the optometrist must make sure the contacts fit you and you feel comfortable with it. You'll be charged a "fitting fee" in addition to the exam fee since you have not worn contacts prior.

Thanks, I'm going to head to the optometrists office tomorrow to inquire about fees and booking an appointment. I need to revamp everything about me, including my image.
 

"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.

Just came back from the eye clinic. Its going to cost me $60. Not as bad as I'd thought. I booked an appointment for tomorrow afternoon. I'm kind of excited but also kind of scared at the same time. Hopefully the new me will stand a better chance at getting girls then the old me.
