"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.

Listen to this song, You're Beautiful by James Blunt

No really, listen to it.

I'm serious!

This guy took the time to write an entire song about a girl that he saw on the subway, and was too afraid to talk to. Seriously?

For me, this song represents the worst feeling in the world.

Listen to the lyrics, and picture yourself as James Blunt.

"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.

Our perception on music is different for everyone. Sometimes listening to song that could be seen as depressive can be motivating for some, it's wierd. What motivates me the most are songs I can associate with. There's one song I listen to that reminds me of my awesome trip to Cambodia for example. I use it as a reminder of how amazing I am.

I also personally love the brutality and aggressiveness of metal. It frees me of the bad feelings inside, and it stimulates my senses. I don't know why , but it makes me feel stronger.

Some people like to listen to calm music, because it calms their minds and they feel peaceful. I am like that too sometimes.

Anyway, James Blunt did a good song, but it doesn't really get to me. It depends on the person and their taste for music.

That's awesome. You're beautiful just paints me the picture of what I don't want to happen. When I see that girl on the subway, I'll go and talk to her. It motivates me to get better.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Ha and I think it was LearningSlowly who commented:

"Don't have a James Blunt moment"

I had one at the mall yesterday. Two blonde hb10s walked by me and I didn't open. When I turned my head around to look at them they were already looking at me and staring. I should've chased after them.
