"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.

Friend dragging me down

Ok, my friend just sends me a message..."Dude my parents just found my open box of condoms in my car and there was only one in there and they asked me about it and I said I got it from you." This really pisses me off. First of all both of our parents talk to each other all the time so this is going to get around to my parents that I have condoms, which I don't right now. My mom is a total highly religious prude and would never imagine me having condoms so she's gonna flip when my friends parents tell her. I can't believe my friend would drag me into his problem like this.

The reason he told his parents that he got that 1 condom from me was cause he already used the rest of them and didn't want them to know it. Should I be as pissed off as I am? I don't want my fvcking parents to find out cause then they will never let me go out again, cause they already think I'm out doing bad stuff when I'm usually not. I thought this guy was really my friend but a friend wouldn't do this especially when he knows how my mom is. Am I over-reacting?
 

"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.

Do what i did, forewarn your mum/dad, and then they can just sit therelaughing on the other end. My so called m8 did that as he borrowed a floppy (about 2 yrs ago) to take work on home. He then downloaded porn onto it and his older sis came in, so he claimed he was downloading it for me as my phone line was broken - bull****. He then phoned me and warned me, i knew his mum would tell my parents as she is very religious and prudish ( also american). So i just said to my rents what had happened and my mum basically said yes down this phone to his mum as she kept ranitng. Then she came off and laughed.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.
