"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I've got a rapport going with a few girls right now that would make perfectly good partners (6-7.5) but don't really affect my heart rate too much. However, I DO have a couple possibilities I'm pursuing that are so hot I have to really concentrate to stay calm (7.5-9).

The issue? Fate is cruel...both of the hotties are in my once-a-week Friday classes, and the regular cute girls I see three to four times a week. Should I go for the more-likely catches or the less-likely catches? It's not like having high standards is a bad thing, but it's not like those'll keep me warm at night...
 

"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.

eliminate the ones with boyfriends then if any are left go for the hottest.

infact go for the one you would be happiest with first, no harm in trying is there just make sure if you don't get her the others don't know they where second choice :)

Makes perfect sense, man...that's just what I thought I'd get.

One thing I've also noticed is that I relax a hell of a lot more with women I won't make a move on (married/attached women, coworkers, etc). For some reason the fact I can't do anything about it makes me take more of a take-no-prisoners approach to flirting...meetings with my career counselor are NOTHING but thinly failed flirting sessions right now.

You stole the words out of my mouth haha. This is the best advice, go with the one that has the highest value first, and work yor way down :rockon:
 

"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.
