"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.

Hi guys. For those who don't know/remember, my gf of 7 years broke up with me out of the blue last week and it's really getting me down. It's really starting to effect my school work and my normal job. I've been trying to keep busy, but I just can't stop thinking about her.

Which dating sites have you guys had luck with? I've only seen match.com right now and I know there's a ton more out there, but I don't know which ones are worth my time.

Please no negative replies about internet dating and how I should get off the computer... I'm still going out and meeting new girls, I just need another avenue to get my mind off my ex... It's killing me here. :(

Thanks guys!
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I tried friendster, but couldn't get anything going. Apparently you actually have to know people on there first. :/

You guys have any more suggestions?

Hey man,

I have had a very successful internet dating career...my current girlfriend and I met via the internet, actually.
The best site for meeting people is hotornot.com. It is extremely popular, and there are a ton of good lookin girls. You don't have to put your pic up for rating if you don't want to(although why wouldn't you:p). The girls here aren't looking for love or romance most of the time...they're just there to see how they rate, and inadvertently sign up for the meeting service while they're at it. The profiles are short and to the point as well, so no drudging through what they like to do in their spare time. It is the only internet site where I can honestly say you'll find sane girls who aren't too screwed up they have to use online dating as the only way they can meet new guys.

Best of luck man....oh yeah, lucky you're out of that relationship now than in 10 years when you couldv'e had kids and whatnot.

Match.com has the largest population since they purchased several large dating sites. Lavalife.com is another good one and there is always personals.yahoo.com.
 

"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.

It's really amazing. And I could imagine that the very few that are in decent shape are overwhelmed with suitors.

With that said, there are other sites out there, like HotOrNot, with some nice looking women, but I would tend to think that they are not that serious about meeting men that way.

Now, if you don't mind 2 tons of fun, go for it.
I just say in my profile that I want a slim and active woman who takes pride in her fit and healthy lifestyle. That weeds out the weaklings for me. ;)
