"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 think I'm getting stupider, is that possible? I have final exams next week and I can't concentrate, memorize, learn anything new. My brain has reached maximum capacity.
 

"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.

You just answered your own question with that statement.

No I doubt you're a pot somker...I think. I use to smoke pot and the same kinda thing happened to me until I finally kicked the habit.

Otherwise, like what everyone else is saying, just take some free time to yourself, that usually clears out your mind and helps you focus in on your studies.

I also found that even though it may appear you aren't memorizing the information you're studying, your mind is still absorbing the information without you being aware that that's whats going on. I studied for numerous exams and went in feeling I was very unprepared because even though I studied my arse off I didn't feel that I had really absorbed the information. Then when I sat down and actually started readin the questions, things started clicking in my mind and the information just poured out on my exams.
 

"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.

Don't yank it. Masturbation depletes neurotransmitters which help you think.

masturbation is the cause of, and solution to all of mans problems.


or is that beer?

have a beer before you start studying, as opposed to a w*nk. that way, you'll feel like your at a rocking party and you'll associate studying as a good time, and you'll remember it better.


note: if this works, let me know :)

Yeah, I think it's possible to study yourself stupid. I've done that a few times myself. If you stare at your work long enough, it stops making sense. Step away from your studies for a while and come back to them later. In the meantime, do something relaxing, which will help clear your head.
 

"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.
