"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.

Women Don't Test You. You Test Yourself

The way I see it, women don't test us. That is completely the wrong way to look at it. Are you telling me you are letting the WOMAN grade you? Why would you ever let the grader be anyone else other than yourself? I'll tell you why. Because you don't respect yourself enough.

You are your only grader. When you look at your reaction to a woman's childish behavior a day or a week from now, will YOU be able to say to YOURSELF, "I handled that well. I'm proud of the way I dealt with that."

THAT is the true test. What the woman thinks is secondary if not irrelevant. Stay strong my brothers.
 

"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 assumed that women don't actually test us consciously, they test subconsciously to know if you have what it takes to be with them. This is especially true for HBs as they get so much attention that it becomes impossible for them to spend time with every Tom, **** and Harry that gives them attention.
Yes you are your own grader, if you screw up in every exam you know before the official grades are out.

I see tests as a sign that you have sparked attraction, they like what you are doing and they are asking you to give em more.

For example: This is last time I stuffed up a "test."

I'd gotten a date with this girl who blew my mind. She told me she was forgetful so I said I'd text her on the day of the date so she doesn't forget.

I wrote: Daily reminder. Coffee with really cool guy tonight.

She called me instantly, delighted with my message. "So who's this cool guy?" she asked.

I was a little off balance, I wasn't expecting her call, was at work and I gotta admit this woman was so amazing I was a little intimidated.

I stumbled for an answer, she said, "I was just ****ing with you." I could tell she was a little disappointed coz I didn't fire back. But I didn't take it has having "failed." It was more a missed opportunity.

She wasn't calling me and saying "So who is this cool guy?" coz she wanted to cut me down. She was asking coz it really tickled her and she wanted more of it.

And so what dynamicallyidle said I think is spot on. Its all in our heads. "Tests" are signs that they are interested. Its only us who turn their flirting into qualification.

Just because you're the grader, dosen't stop you from getting a grade from others

You're always graded by others, anywhere you go, anything you do. You need to ensure that YOUR grade matters most when it actually does, such as when it comes to girls. Hopefully, your grade isn't measured by whether the girl stayed with you or not.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

A lot of women dont admit this, but they usually put a guy through a period of evaluation. Testing to see if he's LTR material.

Every case is different. Some might put you as friends first as a backburner for later, or keep a casual thing going without proclaiming exclusivity. And some...will just make you chase a lot until they finally give in.

But in any event, usually the chasee is the one who is in the position of power.

As I usually like to say, stay 2 steps ahead of women and see through their BS for what it truly is.
