"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.

This is more of a thought process then a actual cry for help, but feel free to offer some advice.
---
I'm out of school (finally!), but I've got a fulltime day job, so I'm busy doing that. For friends, I watched many desert me, so I have a few, in school... I don't know, I've been single for quite some time now, and I got no (girl) prospects at the moment. (good thing?).

I probably don't get out enough, because I only hang out with someone once maybe every two weeks...to a month. I basically work, sleep and do my online courses/compuer/random poker gaming, so I think I need to get out more.

Thing is, I'd be going solo and although I got the balls to talk to people, I don't got the incentive to. I could go to the mall, and see people do their thing, and I could care less if I talked to them or not. IT's kinda like I've 'loner-tised' myself or something, because some days, I dont' feel like talking to a soul, yet some days I'm so hyped up on confidence or whatever and I can strike up a convo with the cashier or some random person.

I guess I should try to bring more friends into my life, or people to chil with, because it is pretty bad how I have my day set up.

That, and I've been feeling down about the girlfriend business deally thing. It's one thing to chat up a girl and get a number, but the girlfriend thing that I'm after, just doesn't go. I think my slight depressive mood affects me too much to be able to be interesting enough when the question "so...what did you do today" or "how are you" is asked.

Meh..I feel like I'm in a pretty damn big hole at the moment. Like I got no life or something, meh, whatever works. I got the potential to make things better, but I'm just a little too lazy. Meh.

I got a car, money...I'm not horrible looking (I could use another month to grow my hair)...and it's not a confidence issue, it's just how I feel about my life, and how I'm too lazy to do much about it.

I leave for a different city in 2 months...and I plan to start working out..and I'll have more freedom so I might try to sarge a bit more.

Aiee. That's it.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

If you are leaving for a new city in 2 months, spend every day from now until then approaching everyone you can in your current town.

If you make a fool of yourself, it won't matter; and you'll have a ton of momentum to carry over into your new place so you start on a high note.

Not sure if you meant by "..and I plan to start working out." that you are starting now or when you move, but Id suggest starting now.

It's like getting to press reset on a video game, bust your ass in the next 2 months and you'll be set in your new place.

Just my .02

Glad to see I have a fan :). I went snowboarding yesterday, met two girls. It was too bad I suck at boarding...because I never caught up to them..:rolleyes:

I feel better now, I think one thing I need is to latch into another group of friends, or start going to a few parties and finding some people I might like. I'm too isolated for socialness to really get out there, but that should change soon. :)

Thank you for being inspired, post something in the Tip Album, because no one has added them in yet.

I should start writing a article again, but I'll give it a few.
