Just a reminder to take care of The Basics

"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.

Wasn’t up to it, but forced myself anyways. I decided to take a cold shower, soap myself real nice, then fresh pair of clothes, then brushed my teeth and a shave this evening. Put some lotions and deodorant and Damn, I feel refreshed and now laying down in bed scrolling through social media lol. I know this sounds like a kindergarten tips here, but a lot of us here forgets to do this type of stuff and you’ll be surprised by how many dudes out there who do. This is a simple reminder, to take care and love yourself. Your your own best friend aside from God and his angels baby.

"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.
