"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.

After some 20 odd years of zero luck with women, the boards and a 6 month long program of weight lifting has helped turn me around. After this past summer, where I did nothing but work out and talk to girls, I came back to college. One of my long time friends, who I've known since freshman year (junior now) was suddenly, surprise surprise, attratcted to me. I've known her long enough to make sure shes not crazy, and she spent the summer working out as well, so she's become quite fit.
That was perhaps two months ago, and we've been dating since then. This is my first LTR and I'm a little at a loss for what to do to keep her intrest up. I'm still thowing out C&F, working out, and making sure she knows my school work is more importent then her. But I'm really unsure how much I should be seeing her at this point. In the past, when we were platonic, we saw a good deal of each other - 5 -7 days a weak, sometimes more then once a day. I've scaled back by a good deal now that we're dating, but I'm still seeing her 2-3 times a week.
Because we're both busy with clubs and schoolwork, the only real time I get to see her is the weekends. For most of the past two months the pattern has been to go out with my male friends during the night, and then meet up with her later and spend the night at her place, eat breakfast/brunch with her and some other friends of ours and then head home. It doesn't feel too much to me like a pattern yet, but I'm worried that sex 3-4 times over the weekend + 2 nights spent in her room is too much too soon.
Was I right to scale the amount I see her back? is the bulk of the weekend too much time for a 2 month old relationship? How do I keep the relationship alive and exciting for both of us despite this 2 year history?

She constanly tells me how much she likes me, and thinks like gets goosebumps when I touch her. So I must be doing something right. I'm still exicted that my long dry spell is broken. At first I was just looking for some practice, but I feel like I"m starting to catch oneitus and I'd like to keep this from crashing and burning
 

"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.

This girl sounds pretty clingy... Reminds me of a someone... but look. You're spending way too much time with her. You've only been seeing each other for 2 months and you're already calling it an LTR. I wouldn't call a girl my girl friend untill the 3rd month. But to see her 5-7 times a week. Whoa... step back for a second. The girls that you knew and are suddenly on your jock are the ones you have to watch out for. They're crazy. :p And don't feel obligated to be with her. (don't let the ***** controll you, lol) If you really want her on your nuts, just see her only a few times a week, and don't make it every weekend or always on wednesday for example. Change that **** up.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

hmm. I'm only currently seeing her 2-3 times a week now. 5-7 was back when we were platonic. We are most definalty not now. :D I don't think shes too clingly - she lives an active life outside of me and really doesn't show any signs of beeing needy. I see what you say about it being too early to call it a ltr though; thats a good point. I guess I didn't make myself all too clear though - things are really good betwean us right now, I'm just trying to make sure that I don't end up *****wipped, or getting dumped out of the blue.
