"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 previously wrote the best revenge is to live well thread.

So today I'm helping my brother out and I walk in the house and check my phone. There is a text from my ex whom I haven't heard from in a long time. The text says," Hi. Hope you're good. I wanted to know where you bought my tires at because I'm going to get them rotated today. This is xxxxx by the way."

Back in the AFC days I would have scrambled to reply.

Today is a whole different game.

You see this broad is a receipt queen. She keeps paperwork from things she bought 10 years ago. I know damn good and well she has the paperwork that she needs. I'm convinced that it's an effort to reel me back in to the fray of things. I'm not saying that it's a ploy to get me back. I'll bet that her Valentine's Day wasn't up to the standard that I had set a long time ago. She's looking for that ego boost and I'm not about to give it to her.

My roommate thinks I should send her a message and tell her to kick rocks. My thinking is that I should just ignore it and let it go. I think any response would feed her and I'm not in the business of pleasing her any more. I have learned a lot here.

Any input from you Gents?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

You've already given her too much thought by posting this thread. Just delete the text and ignore her.

Her text was a pretext. Women reconnect exactly like that, They toss up some innocent looking bait and hope that you bite down on it and tug on the line. They always reconnect for some reason which is to their benefit,

SHe probably has nobody to fawn over her and figures that there may stiil be a couple of dollars left in her 'old account' with you .

Ignore it or you might regret it later.

Dear Rick,
Politely send back the Tyre contact number,(only the decent thing to do),then invite her round for a quickie...straight out,no equivocation,the polarisation in behaviour will really throw her....As one never goes back,it will be a laugh,but there is a certain pleasure in knowing you are the top Dog, and of course another phone number could be handy for the next dry patch.
 

"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.

I agree a little text, got them at Speedy Tire on Fox St.. That is all you write. Says I acknowledge you as a person, shows no emotion, or intent by you to validate her. This way you are saying **** off, I do not care about you without burning a bridge.
