exactly what you do you call goo goo talk??
there was no goo goo talk

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.
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.

And then to top off your night, here I am telling penkitten that I love her more than all the chocolate bunnies. I think you should just call it a night and hope tomorrow works out better for you.Originally posted by Helter Skelter

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.

actually my whole point was .. there are some chicks who arent gold diggersOriginally posted by Wyldfire
pen and Gio...I'm all for you two flirting and being as lovey-dovey as you want. However, those complaining do have a point about you doing it in this section. You should at least try to save it for anything else. Ya know?
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.

Your call Wyld... whattaya think?
I know it wasn't YOU...it was Gio. But you and I both know that by me saying that it's likely to turn this thread from you two flirting to Gio and I arguing and me ultimately getting him so pi$$ed off he stomps off again.Originally posted by penkitten

I didn't think you were a gold digger.Originally posted by Wyldfire
"gold diggers" Sure, there are some...but most of the women I know aren't. I'm not
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.
Now just because I happened to be with ONE guy who was incarcerated doesn't mean I typically go for guys in prison. I only ended up with that one guy because I met his kids first and really grew to love them. They're the ones that got me to go meet him the first time...and believe me, I resisted. I was actually shocked to discover such a gem of a man in prison. He was definitely what I would call a "needle in a haystack". I'd never get involved with another guy in the pen, though. It's honestly really not my style...believe it or not.Originally posted by Helter Skelter
I didn't think you were a gold digger.
But, I'm currently serving time in Attica. Am I making you wet?
I'm giving him a little what? Gio and I don't get along. Never have, never will. The only "stick" action that would ever transpire between Gio and I would be considered a felony assault.Originally posted by MacDiddy

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.
