"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.

Has anybody seen or heard about this new show? Thoughts?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I plan to watch MTV so my lawyer declares me mentally unfit to stand trial.

I've seen it, unfortunately. For some reason, I knew this topic would come up on here.

I think there is a super slim chance that the two friends would start dating after the "secret" is revealed. I just don't see it happening. If the two friends are very shy, maybe it could happen. The one and a half episodes I saw were kinda sad because you could tell nothing was going to happen between the two friends.

People still watch MTV?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

Hah.. I was actually at my mother's house visiting a while ago. I don't have cable at my own apartment so I figured I'd watch some TV for a while before my friends came to pick me up to go out.

I was browsing through channels and the name of the show caught my eye (especially after posting on this board). This show seems so ridiculously fake. Every guy who I saw on the show was AFC down to the nuts and bolts.

The way the producers set it up, the kid who has the crush is made to seem incredibly creepy and insecure. This show just seems like a temporary solution to common day AFC problems. After viewing, the AFC viewer might think "Well, one day it'll work out for me just like it did for him!" and he doesn't feel sad anymore.

MTV never really produced anything great to me.. Besides Headbanger's Ball, Beavis and Butthead, Daria, and a few others I can't remember off the top of my head.
