"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.

Here's to last night. I'll do a side commentary along with some of them.


I don't know what Jen is doing in the right corner...

Group shot... DJ looks hot down there in the left corner... and if my arms ever get as big as Nick's I'll die happy.

Brandy...

I don't remember who this person was or what we talked about. The only thing I do remember is grabbing her boobs after the picture was taken.

Just noticed my hand is getting a little territorial on the right...

Punk rock, anyone?

Yum. Just.. yum (no, her name isn't Yum). :p

As we all know, racism is not allowed on this forum. However, it's up to you on how you view this picture of Nick being forced to sleep on the floor with the dog (at least I gave him a sleeping bag!)

(this next one isn't from last night, but it's of Nick also - when we get drunk we do some weird sh*t)

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

you look drunker than a bum diablo:) anyway, what about handing me jen's number? i swear, she's one of the hottest girls i ever seen in my whole life!
 

"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.

Weird that Nick slept on the floor, seeing as he could probably kill anyone there :)

Unfortunately I'm still with the parents...
 

"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.

Diablo i have to give you alot of props, because you are 100% shear evidence that looks do not matter. Average looks with hot girls = good personality, social proof, or lots of money.

Congratulations to you!

I don't care if it's nice or not, it's the truth. Not everyone is blessed with good looks. It's apparent he has something positive to offer or else he wouldn't be banging hot chicks.
