"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.

Hey guys,

I RSVPed to a wedding with a +1 back when I was with my ex. The girl I was planning on taking now can't go. The wedding is this Saturday, and I'll feel like a complete a$$hole if they pay for a guest that I don't bring.

I really don't have many platonic female friends, and I don't want to bring a plate to this wedding because my parents and nearly my entire company will be there (president of my company's son is the groom).

Anyone have any decent ideas on finding a random girl (in person and/or online) to take? Tips? Am I completely crazy for even considering that? Obviously a wedding is quite different than asking a random girl to get a drink.

I almost feel crazy even asking this. But my time is running out. Appreciate any help.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Seriously? Nothing? Not even a post telling me I'm an idiot for thinking this?

Tell them what happened so they might be able to invite someone else in her place

you're willing to bring a total stranger but not a plate? I'm sure even if you bring a friend everyone would think she's a date, might as well bring a plate...one which would fit in well in the said event
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I actually would rather bring a stranger than deal with a plate thinking it's more than it is, and then needing to end it because she wants to be exclusive. Plus the one plate I even considered wouldn't be able to go.

I may ask this girl that works at my gym, I'm just hoping it doesn't get all awkward if she says no, since I see her 5 times a week.
