"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Alright, here it is.

I have read a lot of the advice and bible and hand book and the consences is that looking at a friend as anything more than a friend is a no no.

I have gone other routes and been with a bunch of other girls- none that kept my attention and I always end up back thinking about my friend. Our friends treat us somewhat like a couple, we get along great and we are both real comfortable around each other.

Now this has been an on and off attraction for a couple years that has came close to becoming more on a couple of occasions- But I always backed away so that I wouldn't screw up the friendship and because I had in my mind after reading on here that it was a bad idea.

Our friends figure that we will end up together and one said that I should just make a move and get on with it already.

After much thought I figure I have ignored her as a possibility when I should have just went for it.

So as conveluted and cunfused as this probably sounds I think things are finally clear- to me- time will tell ;)

Fire suit on...:D
 

"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.

Yes, if you are attracted then make a move... Don't think about the friendship, because you'll either make a bad move and it'll be awkward, or you make a good move and you have a relationship.

Don't follow any attitudinal advice on this, just make a move...

damn thief, what a cheap knock off from the fantastic four. whatever, *stolen*. lol, I stole *stolen*, so don't blame me, it was there for the taking;)

So Pimp said it, and it's been said before, nobody takes the time to really listen though.

Make your move, if the time is wrong, and you both deserve better, bopth of your emotions will tell you. Hey if you play your cards and her emotions right, you might even get to boink her by really meaning that you want to be JUST FRIENDS after all.

Good luck, I hope So Pimp's message leads you to many years of happy marriage.
