"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.

..EMO!
She gets sad and stuff sometimes because of her parents fighting and what not. Then she goes all EMO and like thinks she fails at everything in life.

What should I do if anything at all?
I've cheered her up when she talked to me, but she gets EMO again out of no where!

I don't stick around long because its contagious and I become depressed as well. How should I handle this?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Its her problem to deal with.

She shouldn't be dumping it all on you.

Its ok for you to cheer her up from time to time but yeah don't make it a habit dude.

Sadness does rub off on you if you are not careful.

You aren't her therapist, the last thing you want to be known as is her emotional tampon. That's what her best girl friends are for!

Anyway - sometimes it's just best to sit and listen. When girls tell you stuff, most of the time they are just yearning somebody to talk too. So just sit quietly and attentively listen. You can cheer her up occasionally. You need to remember you're a DJ, you don't have time to listen to all her problems, you have problems too! But at the same time, you need to be respectful to what she's going through. It's all about BALANCING in a relationship, as long as you maintain a balance between being her emotional tampon and being a DJ, you should be able to handle the situation effectively.
 

"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.

If she's all sad my advice is to instead of being her emotional tampon and attempting to do the girly stuff and 'feel' each other, show her a good time. This can be anything that she enjoys, but it has to be physical and not just sitting talking about feelings.

Yea she messaged me on msn.
So I started talking to her and I guess I cheered her up. :D

We were suppose to hangout this friday and I totally forgot that I was going camping with some people.
So I had to cancel it and she got all sad and mad at me. :cuss:
So i just ignored her for the rest of the yesterday night.

Today she calls and says I made her cry and was like "your sooo mean! and self centered!"
And i was alll like "Okay, if your going to freak at me then I'm hanging up now."
So I hung up.

So right now tonight, she texts me "I miss you. :cry: "
Her facebook status is "I'm so mad and insecure, I want to be with you"

ehhh i guess she misses me ;)
its going to drive her crazy over the weekend :D

But it seems like shes sad...

Break up with her, she has a depressing nature about her. You don't want to be bogged down with a negative, whiny b1tch.

Girls are people too guys.

Do you want to know what to do when she's sad?

What you really should be doing?

Cheer her up!

Don't try and do it logically or with the usual crap and cliches people do. She may want you to listen sometime but don't do it all the time. When she is sad tickle her, spin her around, pick her up, kiss her, e wants to feel happy around you, your probably one of the best things in her life right now. Just make her feel loved. Do it through your actions!
 

"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.

Sin,

The chick is 16 and so is T. Neither of them are mature enough for a committed relationship of any kind.

My question then is to you Triple T - Why are you giving up your freedom so early? Be like 2pac, get around.

I haven't given up anything man.

My life goes on as usual, but I have a bonus to it now. A lovely young lady to get intimate with.
I'm not controlled by her. I hangout with her when I want to, I kiss her when I want to.
I do what I want, I'm not chained down because I have a girlfriend.

Shes only part of my life, not all of it. :cool:

But I agree that if she was depressed ALL the time, then I would break up with her.
But this is like a 2-3 times a month thing. Still bugs me tho.

And Sin, Yea I've been doing all that.
She even wrote on her Nex "T, I swear your the only thing thats right in my life"
That made my day :up:

I understand what your saying. I really see where you are coming from. But by the sounds of it he really enjoys her and it's not doing anything other than adding to his life. Lots of people I know have comitted relationships around that age and are happy with it. It's not for everyone so I'm not usually going to tell people what to do. Unless they like a girl who already has a boyfriend or something along those lines. One of my mates had a LTR then broke up because he wanted to get around, then he realized that wasn't what he really wants so he got back with his girl, now they might be splitting up again because he doesn't want to be with one girl for his whole life. Just got to do what you want. At least these guys are getting relationship experiance.
