"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 spent the day with a girl I am interested in, as well as two other guy friends, and talk about a C0ckblock! One of them just monopolized the conversation, and everytime I brought up a subject, he would take over and talk and every time I tried to say more about the subject, the subject changed. Arg. Then they seem to start flirting, even though I know he is seriously interested with another girl. Insult to injury. Then, we start messing on the PC, and spend time watching the stupidest video clips I ever saw. Before that we played a game, "Mad Gab" and PS2, and for the first time in my life, I actually wanted to go home cuz I was so bored, pissed, and feeling down.

I don't ever plan on having this friend with me again as long as I am haning out with this girl.

I am way too young to be in love really, but I am not even able to sleep, which is really unusual for me.

I guess this is just a rant. But I still ain't feeling better. DAmn.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

the number 1 thing i've learned is. TO NOT HAVE ANY OF YOUR FRIENDS AROUND YOU when your with a girl. but see theres a way to still see a girl with a friend around. All you gotta do is make the guy look bad infront of the girl and keep it up.

Oh, come on, man. At 800+ posts, you should know how to defuse an AMOG situation easily. If you want an AMOG to stop a behavior, pin them on it, and associate it to their interest in the girl.

AMOG: Keeps talking to the girl and makes it so you can't grab center.
You say: "Dude, you two are like a married couple, except HE's the one with the gab."

You can subtlely inject into the woman's mind that the AMOG is simply being desperate and needy by associating his interest with a set of behaviors. Learn it, practice it, internalize it.

Thanks for the advice guys. Damien, I know how to deal with amogs, but this guy is a really good friend, and I don't wanna make him look like a real ass in front of her cuz she is good friends with him too and will just make me the villian if I shut him down.

I was venting, and it helped. I did get some sleep and felt better today.

That sucks.

Try talking to him and explaining why you're pissed off in private. Don't go off on him, he probably didn't realize what he was doing.
 

"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.

NO! diffinately not make ur friend look bad infront of a girl. Talkin to him is the best way tell him the girl ur working on if he refuses to listen hes not worth ur breath nor friendship. Dont ever make him look bad though simply see what he is doing analize and customize, i mean he must be doing somthing right to get the girls attention away from you.

It isn't something he is doing right that I am not doing enough of, it is just that they are more into stupid videos and video game freaks. I am not. I can usually hold her attention pretty well, and am closer to her then he is. Guess it is a confidence issue, although it is really rare, for me that is.
 

"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.

wavejam, watch who you call friend. a really good friend would let you work your game and then afterwords tell you his opinion on the whole situation. I have a good friend and he has game and if he really wanted to he could try to ****block me but he doesnt. Instead he just helps. I used to have friends like yours and they are still my friends but not good friends anymore

note taken colrath. will do. I am actually thinking it is probably best to only hang out with him when it is a "just us guys" hanging out time.

yep.

Anyways, I have a month till graduation, so I am really just looking for a good time. So in the end, it doesn't matter.

I can't wait to go to college and meet new people!
 

"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.
