"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.

Going out by yourself

"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.

When I need a break from my usual drinking crowd, I go out by myself. It forces me to be more outgoing and social. Just go to a bar you have been in before and just have fun.

It's a bit of a challenge to go by yourself to a bar.

People (read: women) may think that you're an alcoholic, serial killer/rapist, boring, or sideline masturbator.

On the other hand, if you're wearing a sharp tux and your name is Bond, James Bond then you probably got a shot (no pun intended).

I personally don't like going to places like that alone. It's always more fun with friends. I would say go for it if you really don't want to sit at home all night.

If you are new to town you have a valid excuse. I have one at least for a while.

But after a few months if I have no wingman I don't know.

I can tell you one thing, I've picked up a few times on my own and scored that night. Kind of nice to not have to worry about being ****blocked.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
