"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.

Ok I got this 27in bubble screen (not flat screen) Phillips. Not too shabby condition, I only got it like maybe a summer or two ago. I'm considering getting a flat screen 32in. What do you guys think, should I get this or just save up for a 57in, yay or nay?
 

"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.

Whenever I've visited a really successful persons house, I've always been suprised by how small their TV is.

Completely agree

Television is a means of passive entertainment. Most successful people I know have a nice TV, but not a huge one. They don't have cable or satellite, but rather rent Netflix and watch movies/TV series on those occasions when they're looking for passive entertainment. Everything seems to come out on DVD within a year or two of it hitting the theater or the airwaves.

Regardless, to answer your question, there is a new breed of TVs coming out that might be a good idea to investigate.

Watching TV is very unproductive IMO. I can always find more constructive things to do rather than sit in from of the TV. I usually only watch it when I'm eating, or having snuggle time with the woman. I don't have cable, I usually just throw on a video. I get my news by radio, and my weather by internet. I kill conversation when someone asks, "Have you seen that commercial where...."

However, if you love your TV, go buy a big one.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
