"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.

Give it a shot or NEXT! ?

Yeah, so my last post (i think) was about me trying to take HB7.5 to either pool or coffee date.

I was gonna call her today, but I was busy and got home around 5, and I was dead tired. I texted the girl and told her

"Hey _______! I couldn't set anything today with you because I was busy, but give me a call around 10pm today sweetheart."
***I just "assumed the sale" and sh*t, but possibly my downfall***

She replies: "Oh..I was busy too.. Sweetheart?"

Obviously couldn't tell her tone of voice or nothing, but I figured, if I called today then it would've been the 2nd "no", so I thought NEXTTTTTTTT and texted:

"Actually, never mind. We'll figure something out later on. See ya."

She replies: "Okay :) Bye bye~"

I'm assuming the worst, but keeping my head up high. I didn't take her out once but I'm nexting her. Was I too quick to judge or did I save myself a lot of time by assuming that her IL was low for me?

Sweethart?? You seem like an all american boy who goes to church all the time and does what his mommy tells him. You need to losen up dude. That text you sent made you sound like a girl. Why did you want her to call you? What good would that possibly do? I suggest you lossen your collar and chill out. Im gonna say next cause if youre this "bookish" online, i can only imagine how you actually are.

She was confused as to why you called her a "sweet heart"....if you're going to give a girl a nickname...make it sound masculine.....no sweet hearts....or huns...or not nothing like that.

The best damage control would have been to say something like:

"Yeah, you know, I'm like Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca. I'm sure you see it too! Anyway, call me later!"
 

"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.

Hahahaha I DO go to church, but I don't think I sounded like some sleezy mama's boy when I say "sweetheart." But whatever, live and learn.

I'll erase sweetheart from my vocabulary and replace it with BABE. thanks fellas.

As for HB7.5 , Iono. I MIGHT give it another go.
