"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Like Iraq, Libya was just another neo-con oil war.

One thing's for sure.
The West isn't in Libya out of humanitarian concern.

"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.
What? You mean that Libya under Ghadaffi (although a dictator) had one of the highest standards of living and educated people in it's region, the highest Human Development Index in the region, 4th largest GDP in the region and now suddenly 10,000 people are killed, the country's infrastructure is destroyed and Sharia Law has been declared by the National Transitional Council?Quiksilver said:

So Arcbound, why do you think the people revolted?
I'm not saying you're wrong just genuinely curious.

While that country did get more islamic under Gaddafi's rule it was surely a lot more secular than it is now. Gaddafi did a lot of great things for the people there while ruthlessly crushing all those that opposed him. From our standpoint the old version of Libya was actually better, Gaddafi stated there was no room for extremism in the country when he was still around. What do they have now? Sharia law and polygamy... LOL WTF..
