"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.
how much money do you make per hour?

"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.

I'd say it probably comes out to about $25 per hour after expenses at 10-15 hrs per week.

I'm an RN working in critical care. Here's our salary index in Alberta:Social_Leper said:

My base rate is for year 4, so 36.80 + 1.25 for my degrees + 2.5 for working a half and half day and night shifts. Works out to be like 40 or something. Double that for overtime.
The most money I've ever made per unit time is when I was a stripper... My record is just under $1200 cash in one night for 4 stagettes. My record for one stagette in town is a bit over $500, and all-time for one up in the North, close to $900! Towards the end of my career I'd routinely made 225-250 w/ tips for a 25-30 minute show... cash of course, so you don't pay any tax! Works out to be 500+/hour cash! No matter how much more training or education I get in my lifetime, I'll never be able to make that much money per unit time.
I find it crazy how low wages are in the US... I mean how do people live on those wages???? I've never made anything less than 100 k equivalent since I've been done school. I have a reasonably good job, but nothing crazy. Even in school, for "normal" jobs like serving and working selling retail supplements I was making probably a bit over $20/hour... of course this was during the boom.
For Americans who wanna work hard, make money and get away from the sinking ship that is the US, consider moving to Alberta. If you're a tradesman or a skilled labor dude, you'll have it made. Sure its cold here, but theres' tons of job, the mountains are beautiful and we have way less fat chics than the US!

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.

Still pull in 80k-100k$ a year,and looking to increase this in 2012, substantially. I have a new business I'll be buying out that is already doing well and will almost double my income in the next 2-4yrs.
It's all about specializing in something unique and/or of significant value that people are willing to pay you for. Follow your passion and you'll never have to work a day in your life.

Rock on, our rates are comparable once I am qualified. That takes a few years to get finished, but they pay you to basically learn on the job and go to school. If funny you mention critical care because I work on (sometimes) critical nuclear reactors. Its a round the clock job sometimes, so you get all the OT, night shifts and sometimes vacation work days which adds up in pay, but can really take away from your life away from work.Fuglydude said:
