"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.

Would you take this deal?

A friend of mine told me a story about a bet one of his friends made awhile back. Apparently, before the beginning of the 2007 NFL season, this guy put a fairly sizable bet on the New England Patriots to go 19-0 and win the Super Bowl. I don't know how much he put down, but the pay out was $6 million at the end.

A few days before the Super Bowl, the casino called him and offered him $3 million to settle the bet.

Obviously, hindsight is 20/20, but that was an upset of epic proportions. Do you think you would have settled?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

of course. anybody can win, he was extremely lucky to get the 18-0 record

nothing is a sure thing, especially when one team is taking on the very next best team in the country

I'm not sure if it was part of the offer, but if it were a winning stock trade, a typical strategy is to close out half and let the other half ride. I would have counter-offered the casino that I'd accept 1.5 mil now and three more if the Pats won.
