"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.

Ok, I know you guys here this all the time, but I must explain my circumstance because you usually make me feel better about myself, pick myself up, and start over again. Well, her is this thing. I really got this thing for this chick, lives about 2 hours away. No problem, she makes lots of visits down. Well, originally she was supposed to be going out with this dude from Wisconsin. Last I spoke to her, she still way. Well, guess she made a surprise visit this weekend and I saw her holding hands with this dude, think an ex she always gets together with when she comes down. Well, I think it was her, can't be sure. I was really busy because it was a festival and I have to run a booth. And they were like 15 feet away when she saw me and yelled hi. I only had time to say hi and they were gone around the bend. Now what do I do. We seem to be pretty good friends and talk alot on Yahoo. Should I just like explain to her that I like her and ask her out? Be more sneaky then that about it and say something fancy and if so, like what? Or is there a better way? Please help before I go insane and end up in some mental home.

Thanks, Kegger
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

That was actually good advice. You're thinking too much about her. You're placing her on a pedestal. YOU TALK TO HER ALL THE TIME ON YAHOO! Get out, do something else, keep yourself busy. Hang out with her every now and then. Diversify yourself. Avoid oneitis. Push/Pull. DO SOMETHING.

my friend my friend. she seems like a great chick and all but a hard but very powerful rule with women that you msut learn is ALWAYS BE WILLING to leave. and judging by the circumstances (shes holding HIS hand and not YOURS) it seems shes already made her pick and your sitting there sobbing. get over her man...emotions are for girls, find some next chicks man fo real.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Thanks, you helped some. It just bugs me when I can't figure out the answers to some things, thats why I came to you guys. Because generally I am the one that everyone comes to when they need help with things, and when I can't figure something out it bugs me to no end. I am even good at giving friends advice with there love life. I try to look at myself as a third person, if this makes sense, and answer my own questions as if I were answering someone elses. Does that make sense and do you guys ever try that?
