"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 was on the phone with a girl and she told me that she liked me. I just said "_____, how were you expecting me to react to this?" and she just says "I don't know."

If it was a girl that I didn't like, I wouldn't be asking this because I would have no problem shaking her, but I actually wouldn't mind getting with this girl. This has happened to me before, but I wanna know how exactly should I respond. Should I try to act indifferent, like I don't really care, or should I give in and tell her I like her also?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

tell her the truth but not all of it

it all depends how long u been "dating"

usually 1-2 months i would tell her that i enjoy hanging around with her

but if you dont know and you feel that its too early to say.. just reply

"oh thats good to hear, I dont blame you :p" then laugh a lil or smile if in person

thats it.. ONly if she asks what U feel about her..

reply with.. "stick around and you'll find out"

its really not her business. its your opinion.. you dont have to tell her so dont think that its mean..

Don't tell her in words, tell her in actions. Keep it casual, go for a few drinks and aim to kiss close her at the end of the night. It should be gravy if she likes you.

I agree! Actions speak louder than words, so hold back from telling her anything for now, keep her guessing and then surprise her with a kiss. That is your chance to really blow her away and leave a lasting impression!
 

"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.

The truth is, there's nothing wrong with showing interest. Just take her out, have fun, get to know her, and see where it can go.

Unlike most of the clown school dropouts here, I have no problem letting a girl know if I like her. You just have to keep it under control and not let your emotions take control of you, which is what the rule is generally there to prevent.

If she told you in person you should've said "Let's find out", and kissed her. Or if you wouldn't have the balls to do that, you could've said something like: "Who doesn't" or "You're not the only one" etc etc.

the last time a girl told me she liked me, i said, "you're moving a little too fast for me" in a joking way. she laughed and it seemed to even amplify the attraction more. i read the other responses and i'll definitely give those suggestions a try. i can see the following scenario working out well: she expresses her feelings; you just maintain eye contact w/out saying a word and kiss her.
