"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.

Just post what kind of severe weather you have in your state. And you can say what you deal with on a day to day basis.
 

"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.

We don't have much severe weather in Connecticut.

Blizzards happen sometimes during the winter.

Hurricanes or tropical storms maybe every 5 or 10+ years.

That's about it.
We're you there for the blizzard of 96?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I'm in Canada so we can get tons of snow. I've been a big fan of having a 4x4. When I was married, me and my wife drove around after a huge snowstorm and helped push people out who were stuck.

In the desert, obviously extreme heat is something we deal with most of the year. That's manageable tough. The real killer for us is prolonged heavy rain. Since the ground is so dry, when it rains none of the water is absorbed resulting in flash floods. Those things are nightmares. A kid actually died this year from rain wash.

I live in Florida, the lightning capitol of the states. And I live in the lightning alley of Florida. The narrow corridor between Tampa and Titusville has thunderstorms 100 days out of the year.

And then, of course, there was the year with six hurricanes, with four in five weeks. Hurricanes always ruin your weekend plans, never your work schedule.

This year we had the worst drought in at least 55 years. Last year we had a 100-year flood and killer tornadoes.

The arctic icecap is almost entirely gone in summer now. The drastic weather is only going to get worse.

The only remaining vestige of legitimate scientific disagreement about if global warming/climate change is anthropogenic, above and beyond the natural cycles, concerns clouds. If carbon emissions by humans heat up the atmosphere, the dissenting argument follows, then there should be more clouds, cooling the earth back down. If this clouds argument is falsified then we are all fücked.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Maybe a bad thunderstorm and lots of rain. I have experienced a hail storm before where it looked like it had been snowing in the middle of summer. :D :D :D
