"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

I can't imagine the train wreck this site would have been with political threads all through the election season, so congrats to whoever made that decision.

I know on a few occasions I've delved close to bringing up politics as well and I apologize.

I do have a question for everyone out there however

Would you date someone who disagrees with you politically, i.e. is a polar opposite of you?

Just wondering because I did for 3 years. It wasn't bad until this year, LOL
 

"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.

I have and I can. Reasonable people can disagree about politics. There are some political beliefs that I find absolutely repellant, but short of a girl putting on a Klan costume or something, we should be okay.

Thanks Gio, you were smart about that no doubt.

I know we disagree a bit and I apologize for pushing the line sometimes on some of my discussions.

Anyways, it sure keeps alot of headaches off this board.

I've heard of playing dress-up, but that crosses the line into someone's freaky fantasy!

Not any fantasy of mine.
 

"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.

If my girl dressed up like that...She'd have some explaining to do.
