"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.

I got a question.
What do you do or say when this happens.

Met a girl...few nights later we make out and what not, and she is diggin me wants to call etc.

Next time my boy sees some dude in her arm

Obviously we arent together, talking or dating.

BUt when i go to call h er what do i say?

Never mention it?

say i heard she was with some dude, and if its like that she can stroll?

NOt sure what to do...no one wants to date a girl that is like that, but i am not in a position to get upset of jealous

How would you all bring attention to th is?

Thanks for the help
 

"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.

personally, i would ignore it. bone her. and then next her.
however, if you want a LTR with her, you'd be best to scope out who this guy was because it could just be a friend, friends of mine lie in my arms sometimes. get a mutual friend to tell you about it as one of her friends couldn't be trusted.

Personally, I would ditch the girl...isn't it obvious she is using you for attention? Please tell me it was obvious...?

Ignore it.

a) It could have been innocent
b) There's no way you can bring it up without sounding AFC.
c) You already sound like you're exhibiting symptoms of oneitis.

Call, and make sure you get control of the situation back.

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

True

I will ignore it.

I just know that if i mess around continuosuly with her, inevitably I will get some feelings.

I cant be totally cold with women, and Im sure others have this problem.

It would just suck for things to escalate, and find out she is a tad promiscuous
I have to already know she is a lil freaky since she messed around with me, in a short time frame.

I shouldnt get ahead of myself i may call, and she might not call back

CALL HER OUT ON IT!!! and interigate her over every guy she talks to to see "WUT UP WIT DAT BABEZ?"

wtf do you care if a girl you just met hooks up with another guy, only care about this stuff when you are dating her (if you choose to)

just keep in mind this chick COULD be doing other guys (not sure about the arm around the guy) and this should encourage you to get other prospects too

Just a reminder, if she's promiscuous then make sure you wear protection :) I'd say use her as a **** buddy mostly, she seems like a good candidate for that sorta thing :D

.

you just met her, so there is no obligation from either of you. just like if you go out with a women once, that does not mean you have to cut out all other dating. when you have only went out with a person once, it is not really your/my buisiness who they date.

if you bring it up, u will look jealous, needy, and seem like you don't go out with many women. just imagine if you went out with a lady once, and she calls u and says 'my friend saw u with someone else', she would appear flaky, and u would loose intrest win her.

remember the words of bart simpson; when with girls 'keep it light and brezzy, thats my motto'.

She is just doing what you should be.... its called dating multiple people... you two aren't exclusive so why should she not be out with a different guy every night of the week? This is exactly what you should be doing and if you were dating multiple women you wouldn't even be concerned about her dating other men.. dont say a word to her about this and go find 5 other women to date! good luck!
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.
