"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.

I was teasing my gf. than she said i have to treat her nice in a joking way. I said really says who? she is like its in the manual. i'm like funny i don't remember writing that when i made the manual.

than i seriously(but to tease her by putting the pressure on her) said, so when do i not treat you nice?!!

she said got all serious and said.

You are a GREAT boyfriend. Seriously i am so happy you are my boyfriend. No games.

than i teased her about her playing games...

and she got a bit quiet.

SO.... which brings me to ask. Should i really take what she said to heart.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Boy, overuse of C/F really helps to filter out reality, doesn't it?

Um, "You are a GREAT boyfriend. Seriously i am so happy you are my boyfriend. No games." that's your cue dude. When you reach a high point like that, that's when you GTFO or slow it down a bit. Teasing is to build attraction.. she's obviously attracted.. to go on with the teasing just makes you look ignorant and like YOUR the one playing games. Now it's time to build comfort.. make her trust you.

what does GTFO mean? How do I build comfort?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
