"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.

GF is on vacation for a week.. She turned 21 the day she left. I totally trust her, but cant help worry. Her cousin is a firefighter, she's hanging out with him and all his other fire buddies. Firefighters = bad news. haha I know becuase I am one.. Thats really not the point, but how should I handle myself when she's like oh we're going out tonight.. blah blah.. Got so wasted last night. I'm so insecure. haha
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

So she just turned 21...and is going to celebrate by going AWAY to hang out with a bunch of horny roidmonkeys who have nothing better to do but sit around blue-balled 90% of the time at the station?

1 young bored girl + 20 bored horndogs + LOTS of free time to kill? Hmm, you do the math...

SHE IS GOING THERE TO GET HOSED, kiddo. She ain't there to look at scenery. Don't fool yourself.

All you can do is pray she uses protection and doesn't give you herpes when she comes back. :crackup:

:) surely thats on the itinerary, along with her cousin's wedding and the family reunion. But hey I appreciate your optimism bud...


jesus christ.. haha

Okay, So I may have opened myself up for that one, but I have a week of this to go, and I am really not feeling that great about it. I dont want to come off some insecure controlling ******* (maybe to you guys, but not her) Just frustrating I suppose.. any comforting advice?

Uh, if it was really a boring wedding & reunion, seems like she'd invite you along to break the monotony and show you off to all her friends & family. I mean, a wedding is DEFINITELY a "date event" that girls prefer to be escorted to so they don't look like single can't-get-a-man losers...

Oh, but you're probably conveniently working this weekend...or she has some lame excuse why you can't come with, right? :crackup:

Thing is, if she has a fireman fetish (she's dating you, right?), imagine how wet she'll be getting when surrounded by a whole damn crew of them...all by her little lone self! *enter porno music* Just add a little alchohol...and it's GAME OVER MAN - ROLL 'EM!
 

"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.
