"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.

Agree? Disagree?

When I say relationship, I mean where you at least care for the girl.

For me this has always been the case. I'm not saying the emotional baggage that comes with an emotional connection with a girl is always fun. But the sex is definitely better.

If your goal is great sex, you might consider serial monogamy instead of rotating through a bunch of f*ck buddies.

(I realize a lot of guys on this site probably don't yet have the luxury of choosing between those paths... hang in there ;) )
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Meh, it's purely subjective. Personally I've had a few LTR's that lasted longer than a year, and a few one night stands. As far as the sex goes, to me it was just sex.

If the time was right, and the girl was really into it, then the sex was great!

"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.

Thanks for your comments.

I mean generally though.

Obviously there are exceptions. I can think of a few occassions myself.

Keep your options open, sure...

But am I wrong here?

Spinning 20 plates is a measure of insurance if you're not likely to land anything you can rely on.

But if you can, why not conserve your energy and aim for (again, my opinion) more satisfying sex?

The best sex I had was with my girlfriend's best friend, but I agree that it wasn't as spiritual or satisfying as sex with my girlfriend, but it was definitely better.
