"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

ok so im out of highschool and I always use to do the traditional "ask the girl out to be my girlfriend in a cute way" method, but now that I'm older what do you guys do? Do you still ask her in any way? I have this girl who I've been seeing and things feel like they have been escalating and I'm pretty damn sure I'm pretty much eligible for actually dating her, shes been giving out mad IOI's. I would like to date this girl and I'm not sure how to go about it now days!

I was thinking something along the lines of...

ME: want to do something exciting?
HER: like what?
ME: be my girlfriend

but is this still too highschool'ish??

let me know what you guys do now if its still the same deal or what not now that were a little older and let me know what kind of IOI's you guys get from a girl that gives off for relationship status indications, thanks fellas!
 

"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.

Never ever ever ever ask her to be that. Have you read the bible? If not read it. She should be chasing you! Try to understand that if a girl isn't chasing you she's probably bored or thinking about something else besides you. Let them come to you with that question? And go from there.....

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Mate, you're 18. Don't try to get into a relationship now. It's having fun time! Asking for commitment is the girl's job, btw.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

thank you phatrabbit that made it more clear, and as of last night things got even more intimate she works on weekdays early in the morning so i usually don't stay the night unless its a weekend but she insisted and on a side note she sort of brought up relationship type talk sort of... how she doesn't like boys but bla bla bla bla bla.. basically said her last bf's were sucky.. seeming like she wants a good one now.. lol anyone ever get that? I'm just going to see how things progress, so ill take your guy's advice i'm sure she will start talking about it sooner or later if she wants a relationship.

I still ask, but by then I've already slept with her many times and spent a few months qualifying her to see if she's worth it

By asking her to be in a relationship with you, you're putting your heart on the table. It may not seem like much now, but later in the relationship you're going to want to have a lot of the power.

While a relationship is about a lot of compromises, never compromise all your power. If you like this girl, keep seeing her but don't get too attached. If she wants something, you'll soon figure it out. Let her pop the question "what are we". That is a cue for you to ask her what her feelings are on it. 99% says she will say she wants to be more. If you feel it, then tell her you're down to give it a go. If you're hesitant, tell her you want a little more time

best of luck
 

"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.

^^ Completely agree with WC2

Just keep doing what you are doing it sounds like things are going well. Eventually she will bring up the exclusivity of the relationship, but never ever be the one to bring it up. You are the prize she has to chase you.

IMO if you've been having sex with her for about a month then she can be your girlfriend. If you aren't doing her then she isn't your girlfriend. Unless you two have come up with some weird no sex thing then you aren't even in a relationship :p

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
