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.
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
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.
ok think what happens when sun sets at 6 pm, well most people work in the mornings so they dont care how dark or bright it is (most people). Now in the fall when the days are shorter and sun sets at 6 pm people would prefer to get out of work and have more DAYLIGHT so now 6 pm is 7 pm !!Originally posted by backbreaker
I never understood what that ment...
So, just tell me, do I need to set my clock back an hour, or do I need to set it forward... my mom gave me a ****ed up explination one day when I was younger that still hampers me to this day
Thank god. I can't fathom why we still even have daylight savings time. All it means to me is sunset in the afternoon. I just don't understand the mentality behind it- "the days get shorter this time of year....let's make them even shorter!" It's a bunch of bulls*t.Originally posted by Bible_Belt
To further confuse the issue, the US Congress has approved a change in the schedule, effective in 2007. The change will be in Nov and March instead of Oct/April, extending DST by 2 months.

Starting in 2007, daylight time will be extended by an extra four weeks. It will run from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
wouldnt that decrease daylight savings time, as we save daylight in teh winter???Originally posted by Bible_Belt

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.
