"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.

She Used To Be Fun To Talk To

There's a girl I know at college who at used to be fun and exciting to talk to, but recently, some negative things have been going on in her life and now she's not as much fun to talk to anymore. She just doesn't seem to ever be in the mood to talk and i don't usually get a positive vibe from her anymore.

What should I do?
 

"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.

Stop talking to her and find someone more positive to hang around that doesn't let their issues effect you.

If she changes her tune hang out with her again.

Chicks in the end are not attracted to a guy that plays their therapist even if eventually they go through the motions of being greatful for your help and become your girlfriend for a while.

I was actually doing that for a little bit (being therapist-type bs), then I just thought "Yeah, this is ghey" and I didn't talk to her for three days.

But I do miss the old her, hope she changes back soon. Oh well.

And just to clarify TheEdgeOf I think its a great trait to want to help people and hell even be there for them in a time of need.

Just not all the time and mostly reserved for family, friends and yeah even a girlfriend who has proven herself to you over a long period of time.

But a chick you are just starting to game?

No chance in hell.

LOL.

Lmao, I've known this girl for a couple months now, but it wasn't until recently that we actually started talking to each other. But yeah, the point is, I'm not sure what to do. The thing about keeping away from here until her mood improves seems like a sound strategy, so unless anyone else has some better advice, I'll stick with that.
 

"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.
