"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.

Week 2: Day 7

I DID IT!!!!! :cheer:

In my head I was already settling down for 5 or 6 conversations and move on to the next assignment, but the more I did and the less I had to do I was able to pull through. Seven conversations in one day!

1. New Jersey guy in SF.
2. My sister's boyfriend's sister.
3. The guy with the same car as mine.
4. A female nursing student.
5. Patient's visitor.
6. Housekeeper in the hospital.
7. A cop who was guarding a sick prisoner.
8. Female security guard in the hospital.
9. Patient's visitor.
10. A lady working at Safeway by the ice cream area.
----------------------------------------------------
In terms of the conversations..

1. From Week 2: Day 3.
2. From Week 2: Day 3.
3. From Week 2: Day 5.

4. I found out she was next to the youngest in the family and she's dying to move out. I told her it was cool to live with the parents because she's a student. I didn't ask for the number. I should have but I figured it would be a waste because nursing students are very busy but now I'm thinking I should have.

5. I followed her. Yes I was stalking everyone today. She was going to the cafeteria to get some food. We were walking in the hallway and there were a lot of pauses but I managed to make the conversation going and of course to make it last at least 2 minutes.

6. I found out she has 3 kids. One's in high school and 2 are in the middle school. She used to work at holiday inn as a housekeeper. She had a divorce six years ago and she said she's happy to be single.

7. I found out where he works at. He was actually a prison guard. He has 3 kids, all guys. One's going for nursing, the other works in the same place with him, and the last one is looking for a job. His wife works in the bank and he used to be in the navy.

8. She was the one who opened the conversation. I was sitting down and she asked me how I was doing, and all I did was try to make the conversation going. I found out she worked from 5pm to 1 in the morning. She buys her lunch before the cafeteria closes and puts them in the fridge for later when she takes her lunch at 10pm.

9. This one was when I was on my way home. I dropped the crackers I was eating and somehow I looked funny the way I tried to not let it fall on the floor because she was laughing hard. I found out she has a 7 year old kid with (It's not necessary to talk about it). She has a sister that works in the hospital. She was looking for a place to smoke and I just kept talking about how all the doors are closed after 9pm. It was a long conversation about nothing really.

10. I had to get my 10 so I decided to go to Safeway. I went to the ice cream aisle. There was a lady working there, and she noticed that I was feeling cold. She asked me if I was cold and I told her it sounded more like she was telling me to be a man. I told her it was funny that I was getting cold considering I came from NY. Then I found out she was from PA. She moved to CA 27 years ago. She's been to Niagara Falls but she hasn't been to NY city. She talked about her parents dying and how they were the glue in the family, and without them the family started to split apart.
-------------------------------------------------------------

There's the list. Only 3 of them were guys, and only 1 of them I would consider an HB which is the nursing student. My confidence increased. My will is higher than ever. I know I didn't talk to a lot of HBs, only 1 as mentioned. I know I have a lot to learn. I'm afraid to ask for phone numbers let alone ask a girl out on a date. I get scared to talk to females who I have some kind of desire for but I just have to take this one step at a time. For the boot camp's sake, it's 1 week at a time. :up:

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Week 3: Day 1

The assignment for this week is to have conversations with 10 different women who I would consider dating. I can already feel my stomach hurting. :cry:

If there's anything I learned from last week, it would be to start early. Time to hit the bed.

Week 3: Day 1

I didn't really go out and try to find HBs to chat with. I wasn't motivated. I was strong but I just wasn't into it. Maybe it's because I didn't have enough sleep. I know excuses. Tomorrow we'll see what happens.

Week: 3 Day 4

Yup. I'm on the fourth date with 0 points. I've been going out still confident about making eye contact and I've been talking to a lot of strangers everywhere I go and I love it.

I guess you can say I'm at the "I hate women" stage because of my ex. Right now I don't see the point of talking to any girl. Maybe I'm just making up excuses.

My ex had been calling me after 3 months of complete silence. Even texted me to pick up the phone. I was smart enough not to call her back. I've read the dump guide and all that. I had a dream this morning that we were texting and she said something about dying and I texted her back asking her who died. She replied "Me". Then another text came that read "Help me come through back". I woke up out of nowhere called her just for her to say "I'm driving right now so I'll call you some other time".

Yeah we all know what happened there. She wanted to see if I was still crazy about her and now her ego is happy and she can go find another dude. I'm 100 percent sure this girl will be crawling back to me when she's ready to settle down and I'll be there ready to let her in. F*cking oneitis.

That's just my afc side trying to let out. I'm cool. I'm slowly leaving that crazy world behind.
