"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'm pathetic. Things were going so good two weeks ago and now everything has changed! I had a thing going with this tall, hot blonde and I got drunk and called her and I don't even know what I said. I haven't seen her since...maybe I will this weekend, but I find that it will be easier to live with myself if I choose to believe it didn't happen. I doubt she's attracted anymore anyways because I've been getting depressed when I've been drinking lately for some reason and ruin everyone's time.

I was doing great in school until I had four exams this week, all of which I BOMBED! Probably just ruined this semester's grades. Not to mention I have a crappy part-time job and my manager is a 27 year old water-buffalo with two annoying kids, and she started texting me Friday night about how I'm cute and she wants to go out with me. I'm planned to play like a twelve year old and ignore it but she kept throwing hints at work and ASKED ME OUT for Saturday. I said I think I'm busy but it doesn't matter, because she makes the schedule for next week, and she gave both of us the weekend nights off! She has kids and I don't want to get her fired but I don't look at that and say "That's for me".

I don't know where I went wrong or what I should do now. I feel like I'm going to explode. I want to blow up my computer! I need help!I'm pissed! sfjalfjsioduisritoutioasutoiasto!
 

"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.

Women don't like pathetic guys. Get yourself under control and happy before anything else.

Sounds like less of a woman problem, and more of an alcoholism problem.

Switch from liquor to beer, permanently.

1) stop drinking and your being stupid problem stops
2) the woman at work... "sorry I don't date people I work with..."
3) school - how do you bomb 4 tests? Don't answer that...

Stop blaming me for my problems guys. :)....feeling a little better tonight, despite not much changing.
 

"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.

Say what now? You just said right there, they are your problems, which means they are your responsibility.

Don't take that in a negative tone though. Problems are just building blocks, heal and learn. Make every step a good step. Now, clean up, lay off the booze, and find a better path.
