"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.

I met this girl 3-months ago. We e-mailed daily for about a week and then
started going out. We went out 4-5 times and we always both mentioned really
enjoyed spending time together. I also took her out for her birthday and gave
her a nice homemade gift of something she was interested in and a kissed her
good night in which she replied, "thank you, I was hoping you would do that".
Five days later (and two months into us knowing each other), she e-mails me and
tells me that she sees us as "just friends" but mentions three separate times
how much she has enjoyed getting to know me. (On a side note, she had a single
best friend (whose a female) about 40 years old she'll always bring up in our
conversations. In some respects I believe her friend may have having a bad
influence on her even though we've never met). I was completely blindsided
because we always told one another how much we cared for each other, how much
fun we had together, and we always looked forward to seeing each other, and we
always e-mailed each other each day. I really care about her, and don't want to
leave her behind, but my gut tells me I should. Do you have any have any good
advice? I know you're busy and please get back with me when you can.
 

"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.

Sounds like you care way too much. How many times did fvck her?

I'm just speculating but you are probably right about gf. She might be having more fun partying with the gf. The just friends thing is her letting you down nicely. You got hit with LJB the consolation prize. Forget about her & find new prospects.

Any time a girl goes from " i love spending time with you to suddely LJBF'S" your answer should always be the same.

"LJBF, perfect. I won't waste anymore of my time. Goodbye. "
 

"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.
