"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.

Tell women that I'm using them?

I talked to my ex girlfriend (M) the other day over the phone. We've been over for about a month now, now lingering feelings and only a little hostility between us. But she wanted to know the real reason I broke up with her, because I had given her a couple different answers. I told her the truth this time, I told her that I was still in love with my first girlfriend (E) and that I wasn't emotionally available to M and she was falling hard for me. So I broke it off to spare her feelings. I felt like a pretty righteous guy but M was pissed, saying that I misled her from the beginning. She said I was just using her for "experience" which I guess is technically true. E loves me, but she was my first and she wants me to try other women. I talk to her, it's cool, I even tell her when I find a new one. She lives long distance now, which complicates things.

M said that this is something I need to tell girls I date, that I'm in love with another woman and emotionally unavailable. I've just started a new one (K) and we haven't gotten serious. She says she wants to keep it light, yeah I've heard that before. I don't want to listen to advice from a woman, especially my bitter ex-girlfriend. Tell me, am I obligated to warn the girls that I date, kiss, **** that I'm really just using them? Seems like a bad idea.
 

"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.

No it doesn't, it simplifies things. She lives somewhere else. She is not available. She is gone.

If you DO listen, you will deserve everything you will get.

M said that this is something I need to tell girls I date, that I'm in love with another woman and emotionally unavailable.
Yes, this will go over splendidly. I'm sure they will love to hear that. Listen: STOP THINKING YOU'RE IN LOVE WITH SOME OLD FLAME WHO DOESN'T EVEN LIVE NEAR YOU. Stop it! Stop it now!

There. Feel better? Now you don't have to lie to anyone.
