"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.

So I've recently developed a case of not being able to pull the trigger. Generally, by the second time I go out with a girl, I'll have a decent chance at a K-close. But I've begun second guessing and being stupid about it and not wanting to strike unless her buying temperature is up. And I never seem to be sure anymore whether her buying temperature is right. So I flake out like a bïtch.

The reason this is a new problem is because I recently stopped drinking. When I was hammered, I had balls of steel and didn't care. So closing anything wasn't a problem. But doing it all sober has brought back a lot of old nerves.

So I guess my question is what's a good way to build up buying temperature for the moment when you're out with a girl you're already comfortable with so you can strike while the iron is hot? Because if you try something like that when her BT is low, you screw yourself.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

LOL! Dude, I didn't tell you how alcohol fücked up my game also. I would stop in the middle of sex to have deep philosophical conversations about nothing.

The thing is, we've had minimal alone time. They're always very public dates. I don't really get a chance to do the hair stroking thing without it seeming awkward and misplaced.
 

"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.

Classic. :rockon:

Trust yourself to know that it wasn't the alcohol which made you different it was the EXCUSE you could rely on.

Unless you're BAC is over 2.0 and you're eating your own vomit you can't use the old: "I was drunk, man. I didn't know what I was doing." Women do this when they take a c0ck airtight then wonder why they can't stand up straight.

Bullsh!t and bullsh!t.

You have every control over your faculties. You're just afraid and booze gives you the illusion and temporary resolve to say what you truly want.
