"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 was never really into her, but she was fun and it was relatively easy and when it's right there in front of you it's hard to say no. Anyway, she seems to be hooking up with another guy too, and this fact kind of pisses me off, even though we aren't dating.

Why is it that even though I don't really want her as a gf, I'm hurt by the fact that she is also hooking up with another dude? Should I ask her about it or just let it go? She is still interested in me as well.
 

"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.

She wants variety...plus you two arnt committed, and i think your getting pissed off is because youve been with her so many times and you treat her like your GF?

You're pissed because you think you should be man enough to satiisfy her entirely.

Yea I think you nailed it there.

Do you think I should confront her about it, or would that show insecurity?

ive been in the same situation, yea its going to hurt and it did in a way but you can't be pissed about it because as andy said, theres no commitment but i just stepped up my game and now hes out of the picture, you can either hang in and dont let it get to you (or at least dont show her that it does) and try to be the better man or just next her.. choose wisely

EDIT: and dont confront her about it, act as if nothing happend
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Ok thanks for the responses, one last thing though; do girls do this a lot when they are trying to decide on a person to stick with? Does it make her a slvt?

i couldn't tell you if thats a sign of deciding of choosing or not but it doesn't make her a slvt for having variety, in my eyes.. slvts are ones who give their pvssys away too often but i know what you mean it seems like it but eh i don't believe so

If you want her to be faithful, I think you have to have "the talk"

But let me ask this to all those spinning plates-- Are your plates faithful to only you, or are you just a plate too?

Nobody wants to tackle my question?

I thought you were proving a point more than asking a question, no?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

You are hurt because you love her. Otherwise you could care less if she was hooking up with another guy and sleeping with him. She is so interested in you, she's allowing another guy to see her naked and inside her.

Let it go and NEXT her.
