"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.

So, this new HB 7.5 started at my office after the first of the year. I invited her out for coffee today, and using many of my new conversational/listening skills I'm learning through the DJ Bible while we talked I found out that she LOVES to travel and visit new places. She said she literally wants to visit as many countries as possible, including Greenland!

This cues me in to one thing: this girl likes adventure, excitement, and unique, new experiences. She even backpacked across Europe afor two months after she graduated from college a few years ago.

Question: Given this information, what are some pointers for good conversation fodder? How might I use this information to help increase her interest level? She seemed genuinely interested in me, but anything to bump it up some is good.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Perhaps we should have a "Conversation" section in the DJB :rolleyes:

Yeah, I know all about it. I've read all the articles many times. Thanks for the sage advice. Does this make me an instant DJ? Does reading a bunch of articles on golf all of the sudden make one ready for the tour? Exactly. I'm still recovering from years of AFCness, and I'm working very hard on it, thank you very much. I need all the help I can get. A few months ago I wouldn't have even looked at the girl, let alone ask her out for coffee.

Now, does anyone have something serious to contribute?

No but it gives you an idea of where to start.

We can't make you a Don Juan. Going out and practicing with the information provided will get you on your way.

Have you talked to her about her trip to europe, her college years, etc?
