"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.

You guys say EC, then approach, but what if girl is shy and looks away quickly?

It's funny, most of the people here preach taht DJ's should have good EC with a girl, smile and appraoch...which works greatly.

But what if this situaation: You're looking at this girl, and she looks in your eyes and quickly looks away OR you and her have good quick EC by she keeps it for 1 sec and looks away. Then she'll be around you playing with her hair perhaps. This happens cause she's the shy/intimidated type.

And she plays the aloof game, what then?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I don't understand your question?

Even in your example you still say you had eye contact. But if it's a quick eye contact you can generally tell by their facial expression if they want you to approach them.

I kind of know where he is coming from. I have a woman at work that gives me mixed signals.

Sometimes she will give me EC and smile. sometimes just looks and stares. other times she will look away real fast. Like just today. I was coming out of the mens room and she was walking in front of me. she caught me out of the corner of her eye and looked back at me.

I said Hi to her like I normally do and she turned away real fast. I havent made any moves on her because I have been told she is married. (she does have a ring to support this).

My biggest issue is what gives? I would just like to know for future reference if I ever come across a woman that is single. What do you guys think?

Just like what he said "nothing to lose and everything to gain." That counts as bad and good. If you get dissed, you find out that shes not interested, one less thing to think of. If shes interested then you can work your way.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Like others have said, you have to move forward regardless. This happens to me all the time. One minute I'm getting good EC and maybe even a smile and the next it's like they seem to avoid me (or pretend to because they'll always want me to "see" them) or they look away. I think it's because they like you and want you to approach, but how are you going to find out if you don't take action? Concentrating on signals has left me home alone with my right hand to keep me company.

Just approach man, I'm in agony over mixed signals because a lot of women can't handle any sort of initiation when it comes to guys they like. The most aggressive ones are usually the ones you don't want anyway.

^^^ Getting turned down by a woman isn't going to potentially threaten your life. Bad analogy.
