"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.

A girl has a crush on me. She has strict parents. I'm a strict guy. Do I have to act nice to her when she is around her parents or would I be better off being strict?
 

"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.

Define "strict". In what sense are her parents strict, and in what sense are you strict?

By "strict" do you mean controlling? I dont know how someone can be considered strict unless they have authority. And you have no authority.
You would just look like a jacka$$ if you tryed to be controlling in front of her family.

Act interested in their lives, ask them questions. You can ask your girlfriend what your parents hobbies and careers are before hand so you have an idea what to talk about.

PS...I can tell your getting ahead of yourself, I doubt you will ever meet her parents
 

"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.

I would say try to talk to them. Show the girl's parent's you aren't a creep/ psycho/ killer. chances are, if you're polite, the mom will like you. Show your interests in sports ( World cup/ USA football/ sports ) and the father may like you. Be humorous, humble. If that's not you, just try to be nice and don't be too awkward. don't forget to smile and make eye contact.

I think the best thing to do when first meeting your crushes dad (which is kind of common sense) Is to have a nice warm smile, walk right over to her dad and put your hand out for a nice firm manly handshake, say something like "nice to meet you" and nod your head down. I'd focus on talking to the Dad and Mom more then your crush/gf for the first time you meet them. That way they will get comfortable around you and get to know you a little. Odds are that the dad will probably want to ask you every question in existence though so don't be to nervous about that. Just answer every question truthfully and try to throw in a few appropriate laughs to ease up tension between you and the father. Don't treat her like a girlfriend around her parents. Treat her more like a friend, at least till they are comfortable with you to dating.


I recently met my crushes Dad twice. He is very protective especially since I'm 2.5 years older then her. I definitely had to act mature, strong, and not nervous around him. If you show any signs of nervousness it makes it seem like you have something you need to hide (doing bad stuff with their daughter)
