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.

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
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.

You can meet women everywhere. If she seems friendly then just start a convo with her. Get to know her and see if she is ok. Hang out with your friend and meet some new people who can introduce you to new girls. You don't even have to try to pick them up all the time, just try to get to know her and see if she fit you.Originally posted by Double
oh okay. but where should i meet women then. i have no intentions of wasting my time with typical club girls....some girls in clubs are normal but mhhhhhhhhh. i dont have any intentions to invest time in an average girl. in a girl i think is worthy i would invest some time not much but a little.........but cant think of any girl right now so............im really pissed off now not in the AFC way but......i dont want to make anymore effort i think i will better ínvest my time somewhere else like picking up a new hobby or building a good carreer, it has just gotten too dumb for me i would rather have no girls then to make a big effort in getting one or several.....lol. i mean if i WOULD know any girl other then 2 of my exoneitis who i consider worthy but i dont know one...lol. another thing would be to take the whole player thing really serious but i dont think that this would be my thing and also it would include making a BIG effort.
I meant with lifting.
"Just hang in there, they will try to pick you up sooner or later."do you mean hang in the club or what? because you said you never go to clubs.
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.
