"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.

Is there any big difference in how to act or is it different for every woman?

E.g. if she's dating a younger guy is she expecting me to be more forward and phsyical? Is there anything I can keep in mind to up my game in this kind of situation? Are older women always bad news?
 

"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.

Proceed just like you would with someone your own age.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Older women are easier, in my opinion. Could just be how they react to me, though.

Treat her the same as any other girl, but you can be playful with the age factor. Push by asking her if she needs help walking somewhere so she doesn't break a hip. Pull by telling her she can't be more than [10 years less than her age] when/if she does bring up her age. Both should get a punch in the arm.

It's mostly the same, but you have some fun extra angles to play with.

How old are you?

She'll probably laugh at you but if you are lucky she will be desperate and will use you for sex.

Will she have to pay for drinks?
