"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.

Well, I'm mostly just a DJB-reader as opposed to an active participant in these forums, so I might be a bit off track here, but is it legitamate to ask where the hell is Pook?

The reason I'm asking is that I was searching through the old Pook posts and came across a thread that mentioned he would collect his stuff into an ebook and was taking suggestions. The thread was locked, the administrator said that it would be opened again when he came back. The reason I was searching through his posts was that I was collecting all his stuff to make an ebook myself, simply because I wanted to read it all (again and again).

So is he gone? If he isn't, if you are reading this Pook, then where is your ebook because it would save me the trouble, dammit.:mad:
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

It's not his blog, he said on one of his posts: just a guy whose ideas are almost always spot on with his own. Why he put it as his homepage I dunno, I guess he doesn't mind confusing people...

Still don't understand whats so great about the guy. All he was able to do was write well and make already known information more fun to read. THe information is great, but its not like he was the originator of it all.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Wiesman44, (Gubby)

It's not entirely about great, it is the reputation that he carries. BECAUSE he was able to create awesome threads and brighten up your day, because everyone can relate to one of his posts and because he is in the bible is why he has the reputation that assumes great knowledge.

As a semi-unrelated analogy, think of religion. It's shoved down the throats of millions of people, and they believe it because it's glorified. Because it is glorified, people believe it more, and follow the same path.

Completely unrelated analogy, but you understand yes?

Pook is LONG gone. Good luck on that Pook Compilation of yours.

Make sure you give a link to it when you are done.
 

"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.

Whyshy, the link doesn't seem to work :(

And Docs man, I get what you're saying but I honestly think he describes the material a lot better than anyone else - and pretty much everything he says I connect with.

I'm really not just loving him because he's glorified - really :p
