"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.

Damn it has been some time since I have been on here. Just haven't needed the ole DJ board in some time now.

All that aside I'm looking for opinions on a fashion site that I am working on. Let me know what you think.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

thats really really good. the only thing i didnt like (besides feeling gay while viewing it) was when you hit back you had to wait for the little intro thing to load the page again. and the lines around the border looked a little sketchy. but man i wish i could make something like that. good job.

Hey:

Looks pretty good. I think having Paypal as your only option is a mistake though.
I feel you on the fraudulent credit cards, but can't you get some kind of secure payment method or something? Tons of other businesses allow credit cards, so I'd look into that. I'm not a huge online shopper, but I have used my credit card to pay for pretty much every online purchase I've ever made.

Not to mention that Paypal are idiots...many people have had problems with them, and that your customers will have to register with them, etc, which could lead to a potential sale falling through for those reasons. A credit card is so much easier.

Good luck,

Ryan

Did you make that jewelry? I'm impressed... that's some pretty good looking sh¡t.
 

"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.

I hear ya on the paypal being the only payment method...that part of the site really isnt my side of things but I will bring it up in my next discussion with the others. I know that we are trying to figure out the best way to take credit card payments over the site beyond paypal.

EDIT - just spoke with one of the partners, and since the website is hosted through Yahoo, yet incorporated in Canada there is a slight hangup on the credit card compatibility between the two. We are working on it tho.

We designed all of the jewelry. Some of the necklaces are made in house but most of the other jewelry construction is outsourced. It would just be uneconomical to buy the equipment required to make a lot of the jewelry.

Did you make that site solely in flash? Cause I can't it to load up.

Anyways, don't use mainly flash. Spider's can't read flash so it kinda f*cks opp your SEO.

The site is awesome, great work. But... any woman that pays $500 for a handbag needs to be shot in the head.

As long as it isn't my money, she can do whatever she wants with it. And in all actuality, $500 is nothing compared to some of the top echelon designer bags.

Centaurion - I'll get back to you on that.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.
