"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Finally got rid of my psycho girlfiend so it's time to mack... I've been eyeing this cutie who works at the bank... chit chatted with her awhile about her day then I went in and said maybe I can call you later and liven up your day a bit.

She said "no"... and some other words i blocked out. It fazed me too cuz the way she gazed into my eyes when we talked made me feel she liked me.... did I imagine this? I'm talking deep eye contact like she was hungry for some sex right on the counter.

"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.

I honestly couldn't answer that question. I know what you're talking about though. They just look at you like they're attracted, and then you make mention of calling them or moving things to more than her just looking at you, and BAM! it's over. Oh well. Can't let it get you down. Just keep on keeping on.

It's just weird and I am noticing it more and more... they look like they are in love with you until you make a move... has this been discussed before??
 

"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.

I imagine it has been discussed before. If it hasn't i'd be surprised. I'm almost interested in seeing what people have to say about it.

I bet it's our own mind playing games on us. They are just looking at us like anyone else, but our brain makes us beleieve more is there, so we pursue.

Yeah, that's probably it. Sometimes though, i honestly feel there's more than just my mind playing tricks on me. But who knows. It's probably one of those things that we'll always wonder about, but never come up with a solution to.

It's like they are looking at you and thinking "oh please ask for my #"...yeah right....
 

"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.

Definitely. It's just how it goes. You're not going to get them all. hell, you're not going to get most of them. So just keep trying and eventually you'll get better and start winning more.

thats what I call the "false alarm" or "false positive". you get a sign that indicates that you have a green light to go in and make a move, but it turns out to be wrong and a totally bull**** indicator.

This is not unusual. No sign of interest is a perfect indication that there really is interest there. no matter what kind of signs you are getting, theres always a chance that shes really not interested, and its all just one of those weird things where they act interested for some unknown reason but really arent.

Dont let it get you down, keep going.

BESIDES, MOST OF THE TIME WHEN A WOMAN LOOKS AT YOU LIKE THAT, IT MEANS SHE REALLY DOES LIKE YOU. SO ITS BEST TO ALWAYS ASSUME SHES INTERESTED WHEN YOURE GETTING GOOD SIGNS. youll be right most of the time, and get a number most of the time. keep going. dont let it get you down.
