"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.

Ok, lurked here for a minute, first post.
Will keep it quick: separated, thank f'ing god, for a few months now from a terrible woman with multiple mental issues. Have put up with a lot of bs, for sure.
Have 8 yo daughter that I'm very tight with, she's always been Daddy's Little Girl, yadda yadda yadda.
Seeing a chick fairly regularly already (She's 30, I just turned 42, so not too shabby a start.), but don't want to get tied down into anything too quickly, so definitely have my eyes open when I'm out and about.
Have historically done very well with the ladies, but have been stuck in that hellhole of a marriage for the last decade, so admittedly still a little rusty.
Have noticed twice now in the last few weeks some definite flirtyness/vibe going on with a couple of girls while I had daughter with me.
Couldn't think of a way to pull off getting the number without daughter suspicions getting raised. (I'm very sensitive to her not seeing me hit on multiple chicks as this is all still pretty new to her.)
So, what's the best move here?
Blow the chick off and shoot to re-engage later when kiddo's not with me?
Any advice to a newly back in the game guy for this situation?
TIA...
 

"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.

Yeah, you can't pick up with your daughter around. Enjoy the day with her and forget women during that period. Mack up the bıtches when you're on your own.

I don't sarge with my kid around. That time is meant for me and my child.

Also, I think things are a bit different with boys than with girls. I honestly have no problem with my boy knowing that I date a lot of women. It would be different if I had a girl, and I would likely be more hesitant to let her meet any women who pops into my life. Girls are more likely to have an emotion-filled reaction. Just ask any woman who had split parents but continued to see their dad.

Well, you could try to hit on women, just say "I'd like to meet up with you sometime" Kids are better than a puppy :)

ONLY problem with that is my son's kock blocked me all the time, even when I wasn't hitting on women :)
