"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.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
2 faves of mine are 13th Step (early drinking, chilling, beer pong) and then go by the Dark Room. Very dark lighting, good mix of types of people, decent music but VERY loud.
These arent the best, but you said you arent a big spender. So Id do 13th step to start and then Dark Room or somewhere else after. And yo, youre never too old to pregame if you wanna save cash. If your buddy has a place nearby, drink there and then leave. Or you can do what I used to do a lot when I was younger (and sometimes still do with certain friends). Hit up the liquor store across the street from Union Square. Get a bottle, and chill in the park for a little bit, maybe make friends with other people chilling, and then hit the bar once youve enjoy that little bottle lol.
And given who your wingman is, I think the spots I mentioned are decent spots. 13th Step is almost like a college bar. Most folks are 21 - 28...and theres beer pong and stuff. Lots of cute girls. You can usually meet someone there and then ask if they wanna hit up another nearby spot. The Dark Room though is a tad awkward since the lighting isnt the best.
If you want less loud music, and a little bit more laid back and spacious, you can check out McSorleys or Pianos. Id put them a tier above the other two.

"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.
Or this. Really though. There are soooooo many bars and venues in downtown manhattan that you can literally bar hop all night and have a great time. Definitely check out the Bowery area tho.VladPatton said:
Like Vlad said. Just walk around and youll see something you like. Or you can stop cute girls on the street, say "Im not from around here...my buddy and I cant decide on a great place to dance and have a couple drinks? Suggestions?" and youll find a good place that way.

Young chicks in their early to mid 20's, mostly white. Maybe popping tonight because St. John's University commencement was today and NYU's and Columbia's commencement are next this week. Bar None is just a few blocks from NYU and from the Bowery Bar.
Average Hot Babe Rating: 6.5-7.5

Bowery Bar
40 E. 4th Ave @ Bowery
http://bbarandgrill.com/spaces.php
Crowd
Professional women in their mid 20's, mostly white. Bowery Bar maybe popping tonight because St. John's University commencement was today. Also, NYU's and Columbia's commencement are next this week. The Bowery Bar is just a few blocks from away from Bar None and NYU and there is no cover charge.
Average Hot Babe Rating: 7, 7.5
The Bowery Bar is a large space that includes a bar, a restaurant, and an outside courtyard. You will want to go to The Bowery Bar after you've warmed up at Bar None. Since the space is so big, you meet a chick at the bar, (for example,) then bounce her to the restaurant or the courtyard for more rapport building.
Dress Code
I don't think there is a dress code, but I did see some cats in jeans and sneakers when I was there last (which was about a six weeks ago,) however just to cover yourself, I'd advise wearing dress shoes and a button up. If you REALLY want to floss, throw your blazer or sports jacket on.
Then there are various bars on 2nd Ave between Houston St and E. 14th Street.

I was going to post 13th step as a joke lol. But seriously i think its an alright bar only thing is it can be a really young crowd, although ive taken home about 3 girls from there lol It can get crowded and roudy with the college dudes spilling beer everywhere. I'd say try a bar a block down called the Central Bar, Ive found girls a little older there and it isnt that expensive. First floor is a bar type setting and upstairs is Dancing with Bar.Jaylan said:
