"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've never been so sick of spam than I am right now. Even the Viagra spam was more appealing than all these fvcking greeting card emails I've been getting. I recieve probably around 20 of them per day. What happened to the day when computer viruses and trojans were sneaky and did funny stuff? I used to get infected with the Stoned virus every couple of weeks back in the early 90s. There's a virus out there that will make your modem dial 911, and one where the letters fall off the screen.

Anyway, back to my rant. If snail mail was as bad as email, we'd be getting letter bombs and anthrax every couple of days.
 

"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.

we switched service providers, so now our email goes throught their servers and junk mail filters.... down to one a day.

I have received couple of these greeting card emails. I alway empty them in my trash.
 

"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.

Yahoo mail has a pretty good spam filter. I only get 4 spam messages a day. The additional 188 daily messages go into the bulk mail folder. Yes, I've had that address since 1997. It's on every spam list out there.
