"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.

Alright guys here's the lowdown: She is 18 Im 22

- Met a girl (HB9) through my cousin at his B-day party, a group of us went to the movies. First time that I met her. I was cracking jokes and had everyone laughing. Tried not to just single her out flirted with all the chicks. Must say it went well and we seemed to hit it off very well not bad for a first encounter. This was in January.

- Fast forward to July, saw her at my cousins grad party. There were a ton of people there but she spotted me from a distance as she was leaving (she just dropped by real quick) and gave me a wave and a big smile. I returned the favor and just left it at that, I was surprised she even remembered me.

- Here's were it gets interesting: she is a singer and I was asked through a mutual friend to plays drums for her for a show. Of course I agreed as I saw this as a golden opportunity. One other dudes in the band hit on her constantly, I kinda let him do his thing and crash and burn on his own lol. Anyway, me her pretty much have been meeting up for about week to practice and hang and really seem to get along great and have chemistry. Two days before the show it was just me and her and you could feel the nervous energy from her and I admit I was alittle nervous as well, but I stayed cool and things went fine. Fast forward to the day of the show and we spent about 4hrs together just me and her, getting food before the show and just talking and warming up. We talked about everything and anything, and I through in some kino throughout the whole time and she responded with a smile and was really giddy.

- Show went great and my cousin was talking to her on the phone (there best friends) and she heard me in the background I guess and was like "Is that your cousin!? Tell him he did great and that I said Hi"! We text sometimes about random ****, she is just cool and laid back, no drama.

- My problem is that she is leaving for college in like a week and Im not sure what to do. I mean I have only known her pretty much this week. Also, she is best friends with my cousin which could be a little awkward but I don't really care. So do you guys think I should just man up and ask her out before she leaves? And do you think I have any advantage/disadvantage being older? Thanks guys I appreciate it!
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

How is 18-22 an age gap?

An age gap is more like 18-30 or something, like a generation gap.

Since this chicks leavin', man up and tell her come out and down some drinks with you at XXX on XXX night.
Don't "ask her out" though.

The age gap is hardly noticeable and the chances are you a 22 year old man isn't going to be anymore mature or well rounded than an 18 year old girl.

You have a case of oneitis here. I advise you do not ask her out and you do not get into a part time relationship (sorry a long distance relationship).

What I do advise you do is to flirt with her, seduce her, lure her into your bed or hers and enjoy yourself before she leaves.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I thought that obvious?

He is overdramatizing the situation.

I don't take anything for granted. Obvious is only for those who know and can see this. What is obvious to you and me may be earth shattering to him.

I can just see it, running through his head.... "All I have to do is kiss her? That's it? What, don't we have to go to dinner first? I mean I know some guys can do that sort of thing, but this is me. I need to know how to get her..."

No I didn't wanna kiss her or anything before the show, it would have just made things awkward. She is a super good girl, doesn't drink, very religious, etc...Im thinking of just seeing if she wants to hang out, and take it from there, hopefully to the bedroom haha. Thanks for the help, she is just different from other chicks I have dated so I needed a little push and some help. Thanks!

I used to be like this; in fact it wasn't that long ago either and then I tried my luck and my luck was in and I reaped the rewards of what was sewn and so I thought to myself, if it works with one woman, it is bound to work with another and the second came and the third and suddenly like a pornstar on the end of my co*k this afc behaviour vanished and my inner man was set free.

Alright so we have plans to work on some music together, just me and her. If everything goes right Im hoping to get the kiss and maybe more...we shall see. I understand what you guys are saying, but this girl was different to me and I know I probably overthought the hell out of this. So Im gonna man up and go for it. TY
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Girls love older guys, as far as that goes, it’s going to do nothing but help you. Use that to your advantage.

Know that she’s perceives you as an older guy, ergo you’re more experienced and I guess knows more than she does. Act that way, it will help you establish that dominant frame with her.

Anyways, YES you should ask her out, no question about it, you’ll lose nothing by asking her out, remember, you’ll miss 100% of shots you don’t take.

She’s already into you, play the dominant frame and go for the kill, something to give you further insight:
