"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

I will try to make this as short and sweet as possible. Had a group project today and there was gonna be a hot girl there that i wanted to game. I thought it was a perfect opportunity to test out my game and build some rapport before i ask her out.

Well she seems down to come but 10 minutes before she messages me telling me she probably wont make it. So im gonna paraphrase what was said.

Path: Your probably going to make it? Why not? It is 10 minutes before just tell us if your not going to come.

Her: My roomate has strep throat and i think i have it.

Path: Allright Feel Better

After this she says she has all these back up plans about how she will get the group work done. However, im thinking that this girl is out having fun (no school today) and she is just giving me an excuse because when i talked to her on the phone she sounded fine 40 minutes before and she didn't say squat about feeling sick. Also, i cassually invited her to a study group 3 weeks ago and she didn't show up (not important because i just said to come join us if she wanted to). So know im thinking that i don't want to trust her with my grade

When i get to my third partners house we discuss it and decide that we don't want to take a chance on her not doing any work. So i tell her look i need a good grade and i would feel more comfortable if we just did all the work and turned it in. (It is a paper and it would be a lot easier if we just did it all in my opinion because once i get started i can ussually end it easy)

So i text her telling her that we are going to do it because of the reasons above. At this point i have kind of nexted her in my head because i feel like i am being a push over for doing all the work but my grade is more important than a girl.

So now she gets in this i need to find a group mode. (apparently i wasn't clear that i was going to let her just get a grade of my hard work). So i decide to flow with it and tell her if she can find a group last mintue great.

Eventually after her saying that she doesn't have many options we find something she can do that isnt really related to the project but a decent amount of work. I get this text message

Her: BTW im not a stupid girl i get A's on all my papers i want a good grade just like you.

Path: I never called you stupid. Im sorry if i offended you it wasn't intentional.

So after that she texts me asking when she should finish it and i say dont stress over it but get it done by tongiht (trying to sound like i know what she is going through if she really is sick because i had mono last year). I then asked her for her aim (easier than texting and she gave it to me).

What would you guys have done or said? Or what would your next move be? She is kind of nexted because i think i pissed her off unintentionally like i said, but if you guys think i can salvage this in some way i am always willing to try
 

"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.

Why did you apologize? I would have said, " I never called you stupid, but now that I think about it..." Obviosuly she didn't put in the effort to do the work. I do all my school work and all the responsibilities I need to do even if I am sick unless it is to the point where I can't even think strait. To me it seems like this chick is faking it.

The thing is she could actually be sick. It seems very probable that she is faking it, but if she isn't? I probably shoudnt have said sorry your right, but i don't think the "now that i think about it" is really necessary.

So everyone agrees i should have just called her out on it and told her to get her ass there even if she was sick?

Edit: And she is going to do some of the work. I was just gonna try and put my grade in the class before her because i have a c and cant **** up. I never actually did reward her because she thought we were gonna drop her? <---- thats a question because im not sure if letting her skip out on the group meeting was a reward.

"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.
