"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.

ok this seems to happen to me annually around this time. fall sets in, temperatures drop to a chilly sensation and i lose my sexual appetite which i seek to satisfy with girls whom i find physically attractive.

i begin disassociating myself with the game, try less, become lazy and i ponder the possibility of having a "cool chick" i can call my own. i dont like it, in the sense that wanting this makes it extremely hard to obtain, sets the idea of a girl like that to the scarcity scale and i almost fall into a "i'm lonely" state.

can anyone relate or give advice?
 

"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.

Yes I can relate to cold weather putting a damper on my game and how I feel, somewhat. I live in the midwest and it gets cold starting late October if not earlier. I can deal with it until maybe New Year's then forget about it. I still go out though, and most of my hookups have happened in winter.

not weird at all... mines totally opposite though.

when spring comes around, for me, endorphins are released like crazy. i get a good feeling of wanting to hug everyone. girl's looks go up a notch... ugly girls become decent, decent girls become pretty, pretty to hot... etc.

same for fall.

probably because fall is a sign for me to find a chick to cozy up next to some fireplace. or to just simply just because in ohio, weather becomes perfect... sunny, breezy, and clear skies.

yea it can get a bit depressing. since cool girls are hard to find it almost makes you discouraged out of the blue.
