"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.

Notice the implication that the knight in shining armor is the "provider" guy who wines and dines her, gives her the ring, then settles down with the house and kids....

The funniest part is the second bed, to the phone, to the "he loves me he loves me not", to the ice cream, haha!

Some interesting comments (from women no doubt) at the bottom too.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

I think the AFC mindset pursues a oneitis path that looks like the chick's in the flow chart, but without the beds...

This is too good - think it should be moved to Don Juan Discussion or Don Juan Tips.
Actually, the AFC flowchart might be more similar to the woman's in general.

The interesting thing is that there could be soooooo many different offshoots.

How about an alternate ending where the "happy little family" turns into "disillusioned wife starts going out for drinks while hubby is at home watching the ankle biters and finally ends up EATING ICE CREAM" path. Actually, no, she doesn't end up eating ice cream after she gets pumped and dumped, she comes home to hubby cause that's her consolation!

The cycle never ends.....

Good find!

This was my favorite exchange:
Huh, so, I guess it's funny to dudes that drink. If that's the only group they care to cater too... I guess good job. Nice to know my gender's cash or opinion of their campaign is of no value to them.

It's an advertisement for beer. Demographics they don't care about: Females. Prohibitionists.

Oh, I guess females don't drink beer then.

The ones that do will probably laugh at these ads too!
Too true.

Or how about the chart where the chick allows multiple men to take her out on a maximum of two dates (not three because then she'd have to put out) so she can be validated and entertained at the expense of some sucker who still buys into the idea that "dating" is the best way to get to know a woman. It would be one big neverending circle. Until she decides she's ready to spread her legs, that is!

Man, we could have fun with this! We could make all kinds of sub charts!

I am suddenly fascinated by the use of icons to depict the battle of the sexes.....

You could have a flowchart pointing towards a hammer & wrench, ATM machine, passport, box of tissues, and vibrating dildo. You could also have a flowchart flowing towards five men (simultaneously) but in the end are cats. These flowcharts could be combined.
 

"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.

There's actually a pretty good series of these ads. I've been having damn near every guy I work with sending them to me.

There is more to the flow chart.

Beneath the pictures with the kids, the Knight in shining armour loses all his armour and replaced with a wife beaters, a beer gut and instead of a horse he is riding on a sofa in front of the tv. Also beside him there is the picture of the woman who is now twice as large as the man, wearing a fur coat with an x mark where her vagina is supposed to be located.

Then underneath that there is a picture of a judges gavel and underneath that money with legs that is running away from the man towards the woman, which seperates the flow chart into the man drinking beer and the woman drinking martini and the cycle continues.


THE END!

Hahaha that's awesome. God I want a beer now.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
