If at the end of a date a woman returns from a trip to the restroom with a slight scent of mouthwash on her breath...does that mean she was getting ready to be kissed?
"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.

"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.

Yup. I ****ed up last night.
It won't happen again.

Haha. Naw. We just shared a bottle of wine.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I don't think there's many other reasons to fresh up their mouth. She may not expect it, but she was ready for it just in case you did. Meaning she at least wouldn't mind and wouldn't stop you kissing her. So you wasted an obvious opportunity there.
Doesn't have to mean it's all fvcked up now, it's not really that bad missing it the first opportunity. But if you see her again, I do NOT want to see you post a thread about how you didn't kiss her.

I would say that usually mouthwash = anticipation of a kiss.
