"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.

They're in a very close knit group of friends....

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

hahaha, nice advice sin - real constructive...


LJBF the girl who likes you - which includes acting really AFC around her. Once shes won over as your friend you can use her to get the girl you like.

Hey I deserve a break once in awhile.

I seriously don't see a way out of this unless that other girl already likes you as well. Probably best to just move on. Maybe come back later.

The thing is, it's high school, and even this AFCness might not turn her away. But anyway give it a try if sammy thinks it will work.

Probably not impossible though. Girls end up hating their best friends forever over stuff like this. Be carefull.

...That better?
 

"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.

Yeah, there ya go 'sinny'!

Yes you can get away with treating High School girls quite AFCly sometimes - mainly because they don't really know any better (give them a couple of years), lol.

Plus, the fact that one girl likes you, means that you've got something going for ya and some social proof (you dog, you!).

So, to wrap up, i'd definitely LJBF'd the friend (do that away from the girl you actually like), and remeber to kino and escalate the girl you like.
