"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I can't do anything with this, right?

I have mentioned this in regard to a post or two before, I work with a professional sports team. This past weekend, we hosted an event at our stadium.

Because G*d likes to mindfvck with me, a HB 8.5 from one of the schools was working with our department. Not only that, but it was set up that she would be working alongside me somewhat. Soon after, when I was the only one in our department's office, she stopped by to put her jacket away, then suggested we exchange numbers so we'd be in touch (in regard to what was happening that night). I was fine with that lol, though I'm not really a decision-maker in the department. Later on, she asked for my e-mail so she can send along a packet they needed to be printed - I gave her my e-mail, but also out department's since the latter was easier to work with and I was nowhere near a computer. Over the course of the night, we had good rapport, good conversation, and she insisted I help her deliver some notes a few times though I honestly feel one person can easily do it (I didn't say anything...of course I'd work with the HB :cool: ). It's not as if we were around one another consistently though, it was very on-and-off since everyone was scrambling to different places.

I will mention this briefly because I know someone will say something if I don't: My company is strict enough that any noticeable signs of flirting/kino would result in a trip to HR or, if one of my department heads noticed, being canned. Therefore, I will not take any risks in this area at work, my job is easily more important.

Above, I inferred why I don't think anything will happen. Here's why: The school she works at is just under 1,000 miles away. :eek: With that being the huge mountain of an obstacle, I can't see anything working out. But am I wrong? Also, I we exchanged numbers. Is there any small-talk text I can send? Just trying to think of ideas.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Did I read this right?

1) Potentially could get canned from what seems to be a decent job.

2) Girl is over 1,000 miles away?

No man.

Well, #1 (from your list) is in effect at work. The #2 part is definitely the problem.

That sounds like it can work, thanks. :up:
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I think it can work. The thing is, external factors that make it harder for you to be together can work in your favor to increase attraction, if you spin it the right way. Act like the kind of guy who lives in the moment and doesn't care about what happens in the future. If there's a girl who you get along with really well, it doesn't matter to you that she lives 1000 miles away as long as she's there NOW and you can spend time with her NOW.

That's why when you're on vacation somewhere and you tell a girl you're leaving in a week, she'll still hook up with you and is even MORE likely to. There's something romantic about it I guess.
