"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.

"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.

Update: I see a LOT Extroverted Thinking in your post history that stands out, you are a photographer, and some minor posts stood out. My final answer is ESTJ. Why did you type as INTJ? 1). The vast majority of people have the wrong definitions of what an introvert and extrovert is, so they screw up on the first letter and it goes downhill from there. 2). INTJs have extroverted thinking as their auxiliary function, so if you were completely unaware of what Extroverted Thinking was, you could've mistaken this as your dominant function while testing. Last, I do not know who you are outside this forum, so I am purely testing you off of your post history.

I think Im borderline introvert altought closer to the extrovert range.
2-3 hours a day of socialization are more than enough for me while I need total silence and quiet to work and rest.

This underscores the significance of adhering to cognitive functions. Extroverted Thinking, while outwardly directed, may exhibit introverted tendencies, harboring a preference to avoid interactions with individuals perceived as lacking intellectual depth. Furthermore, the notion of leadership is multifaceted.
An ENTJ finds limited compatibility with middle management or team leader positions, roles that often entail motivational functions or overseeing larger groups. Instead, ENTJs are better suited for executive leadership roles or guiding more specialized, compact teams. To illustrate, a middle manager interfaces extensively with numerous individuals, whereas a CEO or upper-level manager oversees a larger cohort with more authoritative interactions.
Another example: Joe Biden is the leader of 300 million plus Americans, but he is mainly dealing with his cabinet and leaders of other countries, political parties, and businesses not Joe the plumber in Ohio.

Enneagrams are more fashionable these days and have an interesting history. There is evidence they played a role in some early religious manuscripts, and may have been the origin of the 7 Deadly Sins dogma.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

ambivert pretty much means you are an intelligent extrovert.
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Seems to depend on how my emotions are running at the time of eval but I’m a bit of a chameleon according to MB.
I like to socialize but it drains me after a while. I appreciate solitude and quiet and alone time although I am quite content being close to one or several individuals. My husband is an introvert and on the ASD spectrum in a very highly intelligent high functioning (STEM) way. I also work in STEM but am very left/right brained so I have great intuition and emotional calibration…
It’s all fascinating stuff.
