"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.

"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.

"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.

Auckland here, well more north like Rodney District.
Anyone know some good places in central Auckland to pull chicks? I'm bored with the waterfront, nothing but ice-cold b****es!
 

"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.

Did pretty good at Deschlers and Rakinos saturday night. Khuja lounge is also good.

Playhouse and Globe are always packed with backpackers (we got to playhose as it was closing tho' :( ).

Thanks mate. Might try the Globe this weekend amongst a few other places!
Haven't heard of Deschlers and Rakinos are they clubs or pubs?

Deschlers and Rakinos are jazz bars on high street. Expensive but high class clam (if that's your bag).

Float's okay on a Thursday night but I find it too loud to get any real DJing on otherwise.I guess it suits well if your style is "grind as many chicks as you can and try to score any that grind back" in whcih case Voodoo lounge is excellent (full of NASTY girls) I guess I'm getting a bit old for rolling that way tho :D

Have been thinking about that new casino at sky city but I suspect it'll be full of shorekids in cheap suits.

Nanpa is a Japanese word I think. It's basically where guys get together and go do pickups at the mall or subway or weherever rather than in bars and stuff. I usually go cubbing friday night and go do som street pickups saturday morning (I got one number this afternnoon but my PDA ate it .:mad: ).
