"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.

Yeah how do i get my girlfriend to start calling me more? I notice somtimes like for a few days she may call me and initiate convo all the time. Then there are other times..for example this week where she doesn't initiation convo online or call me. Like i expect her to call me today just to see whatsup for the day or night and she doesnt. I don't want to gie in and call her or whatever. If she calls me alot i'll call her somtimes, but i REALLY don't want to be the one always calling her.

If i say somtin to her..would that be too bad/desperate?
 

"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.

Funny how the same things just always apply to relationships, which is why I dont understand why people here try to score with a 'particular' girl without having their fundamentals down.

ANYWAY, her interest level isn't high enough. The answer to this question is the sum of all the information in the community. Get her interest level up and she'll call you more. Get her interest level up by following all of the advice on this website and elsewhere.

One particular thing you can try is to simply stop calling her. She'll call. Although she might think something is wrong since she's your GF. You'll have to just be like "actually I was just busy. You could've called earlier."

Heh, if you asked this question to a "relationship counsellor" I can't imagine what they'd say! Some crazy AFC "tell her you would like her to call more often" thing... oh my...

Yep

Nice post AT. I wish there were some sort of documented studies done that I could point to and say, "XYZ results in 20% more calls at XYZ point in relationship with a score of XYZ experience/interest level". Unfortunately, that may never happen. It would be interesting to test such a system and try replicating the results.

In the interim of say the next 200-500 years, I think ATs post nicely sums that up. You need EVERYTHING that's available to you to be your very best.

simple ... stop calling her so much ; in fact , do a shyt test on her and not call her for one whole day or 2 and c if she calls - the longer it takes her to call you , the lower her IL ....
