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.
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.
thanks !splinterkb said:I would recommend holding off until tomorrow.. or atleast wait until the night time when you can be sure that everyone is done with their family events. Calling during the day would show poor taste, and you probably wouldnt get any answers. It is mainly a holiday to get together with your faimly, so you should chill for a bit.
I don't know, I disagree. I mean, the best part about holiday's when it comes to calling numbers is that you don't even need to think of a reason to call. It's a holiday.splinterkb said:I would recommend holding off until tomorrow.. or atleast wait until the night time when you can be sure that everyone is done with their family events.

True.. but it will also show that you're disconnected from your family, and I wouldn't want to be interrupted if I was with my family members that I don't get to see much. Yes it does give you a reason to call, but you will always have a reason to call. The reason being you're interested.. Noone calls someone just to tell them Happy Easter.thederekeffect1 said:I don't know, I disagree.

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.
I think your talking about ONS.sherineo said:no offence meant here...
but I find that a little desperate....
why do you need to call anyone...easter or whatever...
just relax..laid back...go out ...chicks are almost everywhere
