"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.

Here's tonights lesson: trust your gut! Yesterday afternoon an HB8 contacted me on plenty of flakes, after a few brief emails/texts we made plans for drinks tonight. Had this nagging suspicion all day that I should text and confirm we're still on, but I figured, nah she knows. She was on POF as I was leaving, which raised another alarm bell.

I was about 10 minutes out and texted saying I'd be a few minutes late and got "What? Sorry I must of forgot". I said "Um we agreed to meet at 7".
She replys with "Where?". I tell her we just talked about this yesterday. She then asks if i'm on my way, I say yes and are you coming or not?

Here's the good part:

She responds with "I'm so sorry but can't make it" and actually had the audacity to ask if I want to reschedule!! Furious, I was about to hit send with "If you're really that stupid then no we can't" but realized I've got more class than that and simply said "No thanks".

By this point I was already at the place, of course. I've met some real bimbos, but i'm scratching my head over this one. :::Rant Over::::
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Oh it gets better..

She texted me right after I posted that, saying she is sorry she f*cked up and that she'd be willing to drive to me if i'd see her tonight. I say Meet me at [Bar two blocks away from me] at 10pm, call me when you arrive. She agrees, and I walk down there upon receiving her call. First thing she does is call me by the wrong name. She's 29 but her profile photos must have been taken when she was early 20s, no more. Body type of "thin" held true in those days, but at 5'6" and 150 lbs.. not anymore.

I just laughed at that point and wolfed a drink down. Met some decent girls and racked up some lays from POF, so I guess I can't be too upset. Ah well.

looool. i hate girls like that. the one im seeing now isn't a supermodel or anything, she doesnt have the best body in the world, her face is pretty. BUT... she doesnt ever screw me around or has ever. she does everything for me, shes always honest and never flakes on our dates. thats the kinda girl we need these days. the hot b1tches are nothing but trouble.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
