"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'm not really looking for an answer in this post, more or less of "I can relate stories" and what you did in them.

Anywho, I had a pal who I talked to, went to sporting events with, etc. and he happens to be quite skilled at Hockey (got selected for all-star teams, has heavy attention from colleges, etc).

This season was perhaps his shining moment or due to the fact our team sucks he really stood out, and over the course of the season he started to change. He seemed to let all the attention he was getting go to head, he is very confident now, but sometimes I just see it as plain arrogance.

So much so, all he ever speaks about is hockey, how good he is at hockey, etc. just utterly annoying. Whenever I try converse with him too it feels like he's always putting down what I say with a sarcastic "Ooook" or taking my sarcastic jokes and correcting them (for instance if someone said "snowballs chance in hell" he'd probably reply "there are no snowballs in hell")

I don't wish to just leave him behind, because in the end before this happened he was a very cool guy but hot damn is he getting a big head. It almost feels like the situation where you have a friend who wins the lottery and he changes on you.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
