"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'm probably going to get plenty of "I told you so" comments, but I just want to share my latest story just in case there's some AFC on here who still doubt the DJ ways.

Anyway, in April, I got a date w/ this HB9.8. The girl's gorgeous which is probably why my AFC ways re-emerged. Getting her number & e-mail was simple w/ my DJ ways, b/c I didn't really care whether she gave it to me or not. After the first date, she starts the game playing. She doesn't call me until 2 weeks+ later. I don't know. She just called me out of the blue...I thought I had already NEXT her.

So she gave me the excuse she was busy w/ finals. Being the FCUKING chump that I am, I took it b/c I was busy w/ finals, too. But really, how long does it take to pick up the phone just to say what's up? Yep, see what happens, when you have AFC lens on? Obvious reasoning just doesn't exist.

I gave this girl another chance, but I pretty much didn't talk to her or cut our phone conversations to 5-10 mins. After our second date, I went back to being AFC again. Damn I'm pretty good when I don't see the girl. AFCness jumps in again when I do get to see her. She started calling me all the time and everyday...wanting to go out. Then I kept refusing to go out with her...I was busy...not that I didn't want to go out w/ her...FCUKING AFC! So I'm thinking this girl really likes me. Then, I start calling back to match in tune w/ hers. You know the outcome...she just disappears again!

There goes my latest story. May other AFCs learn from this. DJs keep doing what you're doing!:woo:
 

"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.

Girl pretty much kept asking me to go out w/ her, but I was too busy. It's not that I didn't want to go out with her. You know how when you don't go out w/ some people...it's either you're busy or you just plain don't want to go out with them? That's what I mean. When she kept pursuing me, I started to MAKE time for her (big mistake).:eek:
 

"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.
