"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.

I honestly don't think anything hurts my self confidence long term. I know what a catch I am and I know what a catch I will be once I get all this stuff sorted out.

The way I see it, bad stuff happens to everyone, but you can't let that affect how you view yourself. I know what I am capable of, no bad experience is going to ruin that confidence.

However my overall confidence needs some work. Part of me knows I can do anything I want to, but deep down a little part of me knows I do have limits, but I intend to change that and keep doing hard things until I fully believe that I can do anything I put my mind too
 

"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.

The one person who can truly wreck my confidence is myself. Seeing myself fail achieveing what I set out to achieve, I fall in the dumps before I spike up with something burning inside me.

Failure wreaks confidence.

The best way to fight this is to NOT involve yourself with women that have low interest in you.

Learn how to identify the signs that she just isn't into you, take that at face value, and move on. She's not texting you back, well don't get pi$$ed off, just move on, delete the number and find a women that wants to rock your world.

If your confidence is shaken it's because you are letting your ego get in the way of having a good time. Would you rather get ignored and dissed by a 9 or 10, or would you rather get a BJ from a 7-8? Just stop chasing women that aren't interested. First.... understand it's a waste of time, second the MORE you obsess over a women like this the more INVESTED you are and the harder it is to walk away. It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.

Don't waste time with women that have little interest in you.

Love this post.

I just wish I knew this when I was 22.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
