"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.

Maybe they were interested and you said or did something wrong. All it takes is one screwup sometimes.

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

That is very possible. However, I sometimes find myself looking at girls that I'm in no way interested in. I just assume that girls do the same. Just because they happen to be looking at you does not necessarily mean they're interested.



That's my reasoning anyway.

Just looking or glancing or making eye contact is not what I mean. I'm talking about the look. You know it when you see it. The girl doesn't realize she is looking at you that way but she is because she really likes what she sees.

So, what exactly counts as a rejection?
If you are to count the amount of girls that "didn't sync with my personality", I'd be at about 80% of the girls I've approached.
If this is about a girl saying "NO! Fvck off!" to me, there have only been two rejections.

It's all a matter of how you measure, isn't it?

If you're dedicated to improving your game, you should've been rejected about 30 times in your first WEEK.


If you're talking about being "REJECTED" as in being dumped by your finacee or long-term GF or wife - more than 10 times - then yes, the problem is probably with you. But I don't count a 'rejection' at a bar or club or on the street as a real rejection. That's a wussy perspective - way too timid and sensitive.

i dunno, not very many, but I don't take enough initiative to meet more girls because I'm just too busy to truly get in touch with girls around me. If I met more girls my rejection rate would go up but thats not a bad thing.
