"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.

Need Advice on whether or not I should call this girl...

Long Story short.

Met this girl at my job. She is quitting to leave for an internship for the summer.

I worked one day with her and got her number. We text back and forth for a few days, and meet up with others at her place and go out to a bar. We get back to her house and make out, but she says she's tired, so we kiss a little bit on the front porch and I leave.

btw..I'm really drunk and ask her if she thinks I'll be good to drive and she says I should be.

Well, I get a DWI on the way home, end up in jail for two nights, expecting atleast a text from her...but nothing. A coworker said she told him that she hopes I'm not mad at her.

I text her the night after I got out of jail asking her if she heard about what happened. She says yes and asked if I was alright. I said yes and asked her what she had been up to. I got NO response to that text, but I needed to ask her if she could work for me one day, and she did respond to that and said that she couldn't and gave her reason.

I like this girl and want to get to know her more. Should I call her again or not??

Thanks in advance...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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.

need some responses.
Well, you didn't really say enough in the post about what actually happened between the two of you in person that night other than the fact that you made out. Anyway, I think there's a possibility that you MIGHT have gotten physical too soon and there could be a little bit of buyer's remorse on her part. Again, I don't know enough about what actually happened between the two of you that night prior to the makeout so I can't really say. I would try caling her, and if you continue to get blown off, just move on.

Well, that night we basically just hung out at the bar. We talked and stuff, and then (I don't really remember a whole lot) I just remember out of nowhere, on the ride home, she sat right next to me in the back seat and I kind of just started the physical touching and stuff.

I don't kow what's up with the situation. She leaves in like a day, and I kind of want to remain in contact with her so when she gets back...

I think her and her boyfriend just broke up a little over a month ago, fyi.

Yeah, I'd give her a call....try to hang out with her before she leaves, so that she can miss you while she's gone ;)
 

"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.
