"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.

Good luck man. But seriously, its no big deal. If she says yes, thats cool. If she says no, find some cute girl you barely know and ask her.
 

"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.

Good on ya man :p sounds like the best thing to do in that situation. But remember, just go anyways. However, things are sort of looking up as I see it.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

If i was caught in that situation I'd tell her blunt, to either choose me or her ****ty ex, the choice is in her hands. Then walk away.

Straight up - ask her. Doesn't matter what she says!

Rejected... she got back with her BF basically... i made the mistake of being her BACKUP plan. Definitely have to be more assertive. I am happy though since i had a backup myself, still a above average girl :) and i learned from my mistake and gained respect. I did get a text from the other girl though telling me how sweet and nice i was about everything.... which idk about... i still feel like i may have a chance in the future...? comments?
 

"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.

I'm not sure how strict your school is on use of the PA. However in my school I am very close with the teacher who does the annoucenments and after getting permission from the principle I was able to get the teacher to ask the girl to prom for me over the morning announcements. Ofcourse you have to make sure the the girl is in school....
It went something like ".... Also XXX would like to know if XXX will go to porm with him, He's currently in room 211"

King you're overthinking. She has her BF back, don't be her ***** to fall back on. A text means nothing unless she's blatantly flirting with you. And I mean girls will make it obvious if they really do care. Move on, sure you might have a "chance" in the future, but it's only going to be about the same as with a girl you don't know or if you keep this up, even worse because you'll be permanently stuck in the friend/***** zone.
