"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.

"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.

That just the way it is.
Not very grammatical that story, but ya get the idea....
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

However, your intentions are clear to her now, I've lost a few women through them thinking I don't like them, so from that POV, I think it's a good thing.

I disagree. It's a mistake if you get all needy and desperate about her.Bvbidd said:
You can tell a girl you like her, and not be a sap.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

The chase is sometimes the best bit. we all want what isnt easily obtainable.
That was a bad thing. Girls do NOT like telling people they like them. They don't like hearing it.
They expect you to go for it without knowing. A blind leap if you will.
It affirms their insecurities or some bullsiht.
Needless to say, they don't like pussies. Next time you drink, think about what you're doing.
Telling a girl you like her pisses her off and will make her run away. I can assure you of this. DO NOT think otherwise it will ruin you later. She only wants what she can't have, if you like her she has absolutley no reason to be with you.WesCottII said:

true I just had this convo with a girl...WesCottII said:
she goes "I get nervous around you do you get nervous too?"
me "I think everyone gets nervous around people they like"
Damn I'm getting better at this.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
All criticism is good..just allows us all to become better people....im not a virgin, but this is the first time ive liked a girl in this way...and gone about doing something about it. Granted, it wasnt the right thing, and theres a 90% that it aint gonna happen.....but with it being a first time, i now know what not to do in future.
Cheers for the reply's guys.....and if by the offchance anything does happen..youll be first to know
