"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.

Oh....I thought I did. Yes, same girl.
oh man,...

Let me ask a few questions here; she just turned 40 right? Was she ever married?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

No, she isn't 40 yet. Never married.

I know what you are getting at and I'm sure you are at least partially correct.

Like I said, it has been "out there" for awhile now. I could have thrown down numerous times but declined.

There might be a part of her that is being driven by a desire to "nest", but she knows where I stand as far as relationships go, and I don't feel any desperation setting in from her. I think she is smart enough to realize that there will never be anything between us.

Str8up,

I don't understand whats very interesting about this...

You story shows you as a man of high value to women. If you have a female friend who thinks highly of you and has females in her life, then you better bet that she is sharing your very positive aspects to them.

Females want MEN. You've been proven by someone else's words...
especially if those females think of her as a catch or cannot figure out why you would reject her.

Friend more women. It works, quite well. My kind of social networking. :D
