"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.

Who's Hotter?

This is just for fun:
Who's hotter, Kristeen Leahy or Rachel Bonnetta? Both of these gals are hosts on the sports channel FS1. I think they are both extremely attractive, but I'm curious as to what people here would say. Please weigh in. I have my suspicions, but I'll reveal my opinion later. Leahy is the blonde, and Bonnetta is the brunette:



 

"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.

It's tough to judge. They're both equally attractive in their own right. Though since I like blondes, Kirsteen wins the title.
 

"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.

I'm usually brunette kinda guy. But I'd take the blond on this one. She has a seductive look to her like she's fun in bed and takes it in the butt.

Gentlemen prefer blondes.
I'd rather commit to the brunette one though if i had to choose, she seems more down to earth between the two.

Blondes all the way, plus the brunette is a WOP. I love brunettes if they are WASPy or Eastern European but Italian women are a cancer that need to extinct already, Italian American women are the worst of them all.

Looks like the blonde has a slight edge from the opinions here. I guess I'll give mine now.
As I said, I think they are both very attractive, there are no wrong answers here. Except maybe Toad's lol.

I actually prefer the brunette, because to me she just looks cuter. That may not be fair though, because I've been seeing the blonde on TV for a lot longer, she may have just lost some of her novelty to me. I would say that both these women look a lot better on film/TV than they do in their pictures. Rachel (the brunette) especially has charming mannerisms. But if you would have asked me this a year ago I probably would have said the blonde was more attractive, so who knows?

I kind of expected the guys here to pick the brunette, partly because she is 26 and Leahy is 33 (post wall, gasp!). Not sure when the pictures were taken though.
 

"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.

Both.

Boobwise together they have just about enough.
Blonde looks older but is quite beautiful, while the brunette looks rather average to me.
I also prefer brunettes in general.

Definitely the brunette, but I’ll only date her if she goes blond.

I think the blonde looks like arm candy, while the brunette has more of a girl next door look about her.

If you ever get to see her show "Lock it In" on FS1, which is a sports gambling show on weekday afternoons, she looks a lot better than in her pictures, IMO.

I live in Romania, got almost no American channels here.
But our sports news girls are ridiculously hotter than those 2 actually.
We even have jokes about guys signing for Romanian sports clubs just for a chance to score a sports reporter/anchor.
Seriously, google it.
 

"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.

Eastern Europe is known for having attractive women, so I don't doubt it.

I could believe some young fellow would believe 33 is an "old lady", but 26? No way.

They both look past 30. I consider 25 an old lady, but everyone has their preferences for a reason.
 

"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.
