"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.

Getting My Dating Life Back...I Hope

Okay, I just posted that I've had a "problem" (http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?t=100100) getting laid lately...meaning in the last 3 and a half months of moving to a new town.

I guess the consensus was that the reason I am no longer getting much attention from women here is because it's really all in my head. I've felt the girls here are reserved and not really receptive...and that they give an asexual vibe, imo.

Whether or not that's the case, I really have to get my "mojo" back. I have nothing to lose, so I figured I'd make a thread simply to keep myself obligated to following through with it. Sort of like a reminder to make me make a conscious effort because I otherwise wouldn't.

I really miss the days girls would smile and wave at me or just start talking to me. Hopefully, though, I've just been deluding myself all along and that's still around the corner...somewhere.

Actually, most of my dating/sex life was from clubs, which I no longer go to. I don't drink any more either or stay out late. It's really not healthy, and the quality of people in those venues is not great.

So, I'll update as often as possible. And hopefully you guys are right about it all being in my head. And that I actually have not lost all desiribility in my new town for some strange reason. I am pretty busy, so "making an effort," for me, will consist of making conversations here and there when I get a chance. I think I do get the chance to, but felt it would be pointless when the girl is not already showing signs of being attracted to me...but I guess that's the wrong mentality, so I'm going to just make an effort anyway.

Goals: To start dating 1 girl.

Yes, I am setting my goal very low. Because I doubt I could even reach that. It seems very out of reach to me...as pathetic as that is...I really laugh at myself for it...but I think if I can get to that then I'll up the goal to several dates, then to getting a girlfriend or something.

Deadline: Having gone nearly 4 months without any action...I'm not really putting a deadline on this.

(side note: I don't masturbate)
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Good luck. Set your goals higher, so if you fall short, you still made it further. Shoot for the moon!

Geez. Almost sounds like you moved to Boston from out of town.

Whatever the case may be, don't hold back. Be the guy you've always been even if it feels unnatural somehow in your new surroundings. It's better to be different than to be fake (trying to fit in). Always remeber that much.
