"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Ok, I have an interesting situation. I met this girl at a party. We talked, I busted her balls a little bit it was great. Got her #. We talk a little on the IM and stuff and the phone, and we eventually go out on a date. It was great we went to the bar, got drunk, and ended up going to funky town that night. ;) not bad for the first date, huh?

Anyway, my delimma is this: she's 21..... and I'm 19.

She gets ME into bars. She shows ME a good time.

I can't take her to clubs, cause there aren't any in this town (at least none that aren't gangster clubs.)

Also, she lives in an apartment, and I live in a freshman dorm.

I mean, we have fun when we go out, but I kinda feel like the ***** of the relationship, the guy who's following her around like a puppy. I try to compensate with being extra ****y/funny and busting her balls, and it seems to work. Also, I try to be really busy (I have another over-21 girl that I date now and again as well, so any advice would help me with both of them).

however, I really feel self conscious when asking her out, cause it's always "well, what do YOU wanna do?" Ya know. I can't be the man, cause the MAN won't let me.

I'm afraid that eventually her attraction will dissipate. any advice on how to handle this?

and no, a fake id is not an option. I'm on the football team, and if I AM caught and arrested, it will be HELL to pay for me.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Well that has to stop!!

Really, there has got to be things to do other than bars. You should be suggesting the ideas for the 1st month or two. Restaurants/coffe houses/art galleries? House parties?

Don't ask her what she wants to do. Maybe this girl doesn't care, but I've known females who get kind of annoyed when YOU call HER, and you have no idea what to suggest.
