"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.

Which move to take with this?

Just called a girl I'm gaming for a few weeks now, been out 3 times, had a quick chat c+f, told her my plans for tonight had fallen through and was calling to let her know I fancied hanging out with her tonight. She tells me can't she's working (waitress), but only til 9, so if I wanna stop by the pub for a drink after work, that'd be good. I said I dunno, the alternate offer is a bbq at a friends, but kept the c+f going giving a reason I don't fancy it cos I don't wanna drink again this weekend. She knows I went out last weekend with university friends for first time since graduating, so knows it was a big nite. She joked, 'haha not after last week". I said I'll let ya know.... she said yeah just send me a txt.

So where do I play it from here? Go for the drink? or go to the bbq, if so, do I txt or not? Normally I would just do what I felt most like doing, but i'm pretty 50/50 at the moment.
 

"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.

Have you banged her yet? I'll assume not (though if I'm wrong I apologize). What time's the BBQ at? I assume it's earlier in the evening, right? If that's the case can't you do both. Go to the BBQ for a bit, peace out when she's done work and go meet up with her. Get some booze into her, get her emotions going, get her back to your place and seal the deal.
