"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.

Help, No more baseball

"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.

You only have one job. Absorb information, and regurgitate it on paper. It's the least you could do. Apparently your mom already set this rule a while ago. You should have been more careful.

Time to grow up. Stop looking for excuses and show a little more responsibility if you want the privilege.

...tell her ur old enough to make your own decisions and that she should be ashamed for taking something you love just because of some stupid grade. If that doesn't work promise her that u'll get a higher GPA if you play baseball and study harder so u will so she cant say anything.

Okay seriously...tell her god damnit that you only get to play baseball for so long and that you want to cherish it. I am in college now and don't get to play anymore and I wish I could relive it every day.

A 3.25 is a good GPA. Seriously, life isn't all about good grades and a good job!!! Money doesn't equal happiness!!

Tell her that stuff, hopefully she'll chill out. Forge her signature at all costs. Baseball is a great sport.

Smack her in the face and call her a b*tch. I hate parents like yours; she needs to f*ckin relax and realize grades arent everything.

Haha. I agree. Tell her baseball makes you happy. Most parents care about their kids happiness.
