"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.

alright, i am transfering to a new school and during registration i meet this new girl. she helps out for the school and shows new people around and ****. so we chat for like 5 minutes. the next day of registration i see her again and we have a good talk for like 10 minutes and she was laughing and it looked like she was enjoying talking to me. the whole time shes giving me good body language and smiling and ****. so then today was the first day of school and i see her in the halls. and i say whats up and we talk for a second and then i say give me your number and then she's like "no, not right now... sorry" WTF????????????????????? I seriously do not understand what i did wrong. i dont know how i couldve done it any better. this makes no sense. please tell me whats going on.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

ahhhh **** man. i shouldve said that.

but, still, why would she say no? saying "give me your number" cant be enough for her to say no. i heard that if you say "can i have your number" shows weakness and gives her prizability. so thats why i said give me your number.

but i still dont know why she said no?

You were too eager maybe?

I don't know the situation enough.

But maybe you should of waited for her to invite you to go hang out, at like lunch or something. You don't always have to start up a convo everytime you see a chick. Just a hi will work.

There is still hope though. Just wait around.

Well she did say not right now. At least you have some chance. Just do the basics:
Kino, talk to her about her, say that you like the same things so you two have something in common, be seen with other girls, C&F, eye contact, etc.
Then at the end of one of your convos ( AND MAKE SURE that you say this when she is on a HIGH, like when she is laughing and having a good time. As soon as she has a good time you want to take it away from her leaving her wanting more) just say something along the lines of:
"I have to get going, but it was nice talking to you. Why don't you write your e-mail for me?" AS she is writing her e-mail say "Go ahead and write your number too"
Works everytime.

AND finally the most important part:
LET US KNOW HOW IT GOES!

"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.
