"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.

Why would a 21 year old man do this to himself?

Just want some perspective on this. Met up with a former co worker of mine at the bar this past weekend. Mind you she is pretty good looking but that's about all there is. Prototypical materialistic person. Well she just recently got married a year ago. She has 4 boys from two different men. She's 32 and her husband is only 21. I was like wtf is wrong with that guy. I dunno about you folk but damn when I was 21 the last thing on my mind was getting married aspecially to some broad over 10 years older than me with 4 kids from 2 different men. her oldest is 14 years old. So her husband is only 7 years older than her oldest son. Yowza!

So she tells me she just had another boy about 5 months ago from this guy she married. She tells me she wants a daughter so bad. I just started laughing inside like wow 3 different guys 5 boys. Hmmmm doesn't seem like that daughter is gonna happen. lol. This guy isn't bad looking either but he is a huge wussy. I mean he is all over her like she is the best thing in this world. He even states she's all mine like in his mind she is the best thing ever and all the other men want her. lol. Just weird to me. Why would a 21 year old settle for some used up baby maker ten years older than him?
 

"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.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
Most people just don't stop to think.

It's that simple. They're brought up in a traditional family, but they never bother to learn the rhyme or reason behind the partnership, and blindly follow suit for whatever comes along.

Add to that a host of pop-culture that worships women as demi-deities, and it's almost an aspect of SHAME for a young man in today's society to NOT have a woman on which to dote.

Of course, without knowing the two, I can't say for sure. :p

not here. in the real world.
^^ I'd say there is some truth to this ^^ , I'm sure he's "going with the flow of love" as he feels it, and little does he know there may be an undercurrent in his future.

also -- maybe she makes him pancakes in the morning with her five other kids.
