"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 let me give you all some background information before I jump into this suprizing conversation I just had. I was thinking I could use some DJ info for my next step, or, if I bombed, on how to do better next time.

Alright, so my friend throws a birthday party at this bar two weeks ago and since him and most of our friends are underage, we all went and had a blast. Late in the night, when I was really gone, I started singing karaoke and really it hit off with some girl. Although it's kinda blurry, I remember singing, dancing, and doing a little bit of C&F on the girl, before she "needed" my number.

On the way back, I lost her phone and used it as a good way to call her, you know, in case she didn't remeber me or something. So I called the day after, and then three days after, each time with the voice mail, and all I did was say "Hey - It's Evan. Just checking if you've seen my phone. Hit me back."

So tonite, I'm on the computer, relaxing, and my phone blows up, it's that girl. Then the conversation goes like this:

Me: Hello?

HB8.5: Hey!

Me: Oh hey, is this the girl that took my camera?

HB8.5: Haha. Yeah, it's Donna.

Me: Haha. Good, I'm glad you finally were willing to give me the camera back.

HB8.5: What?! I didn't steal it.
Me: You sure? I'm swear you were the last one to have it.

HB8.5: *laughs harder* No no, I'm sure you dropped it in the car.

Me: Nah, I think someone would have told me.

HB8.5: *Laughs* Sureee.

Me: Well, I still think it was you. But what's good?

HB8.5: *laughs* What is this some sort of pickup line?

Me: Nah, I just really wanted my camera, *sarcastic* I'm nothing without it.

HB8.5: *laughs* Yo! I didn't take your camera and why would I take it and I can't believe you said that! I have plenty of cameras at home so why would I take it! You're such a jerk!

Me: Ha. I suppose.

HB8.5: Well, I was just gonna call you to say hi, but you're number was so far away, so I hesitated.

Me: But now it's a good enough time?

HB8.5: *suprized* Yeah.

Me: Aww, that's cute.

HB8.5: *laughs*

Me: Well, I don't wanna waste any more of your minutes, so I'm gonna head to bed, I got a mad early trip tomorrow.

HB8.5: Uh, alright.

Me: But if you wanna give me one of your cameras-

HB8.5: Nah! They're like my family!

Me: Alright, well, I'll talk to you later.

Granted, I think this went real well since I'm a bit toasted, although I could have carried the conversation stronger or something.

Does anyone else have any advice?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

6.5 out of 10.


You did a good job when she asked ya about this being a "pick up line".....but I would have said "I don't pick up chicks under 5 ft 5 that take things without asking....let's say a camera, for example haha"


It was decent....when she called ya a "jerk." You could have said "Jerk? haha, look who's talkin! at least I don't steal people's cameras! haha"

Me: Well, I don't wanna waste any more of your minutes, so I'm gonna head to bed, I got a mad early trip tomorrow.

Don't apologize for wasting minutes....You could have just done a simple, "I got to go" or "I need to go...by the way, if you need a job, ask kodak..and tell them about your relationship with stolen cameras, they'll hire you":rolleyes:

When you asked for your camera and she said no..you should have said "I know and right now you have one of my family members.....so I'm taking two because I can";)


Good Luck:cool:
