"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.

Night date idea - she doesn't drink

Yo fellas,

So have a date with a cute 29 year old tomorrow night. I am planning to meet her around 8 so that I don't have to buy her dinner, because forget that. However, I am struggling to think of an appropriate place to take her out because she doesn't really drink because she got really bad alcohol poisoning when she was younger. She has had a couple drinks with me before but it doesn't seem to be her thing.

She lives in a kind of a hipster/bohemian neighborhood with cafes, music venues, lots of shops, and so on. I am thinking of specifically someplace that I can escalate and get physical and take her back to her place.

Any ideas that pop out at your guys?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

If I were you I'd start off with a quick stop at a cafe, get a couple drinks to talk and loosen up for the night. Then I'd hit up a music venue (check first to see if there is a show going on) for a couple hours because the vibe will be good and it'll give you opportunities to physically get close to her and there won't be chances of awkward pauses in conversations. Then when you can sense it is the right time, tell her "hey let's get outta here", and bring her back to your place.

^^^serious, 90% of the time I choose 8pm for that reason.

^^^This is why I like them coming to my kneck of the woods. Home field advantage. But if you must go to her place, she may want to show you around, which isn't too bad either. Is there anything YOU are interested down there? You want to see? Personally, if you don't know the area that well, you could do some research. Maybe if there's something you want to buy you can tell her about it and have her come along, help you pick something out. Then go from there. If there's a lot going on you can move from venue to venue.

"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.
