"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.

i'm 6 weeks in
facebook official

we've known eachother 9 months & briefly dated at the beginning of the year.

6 weeks ago she asked for a relationship after I went full DJ over the last few months


I'm fully comfortable with initial stages of attraction, but the problem now is real intimacy & connection etc (no homo)

How do you maintain attraction, not become her b*tch but still be a boyfriend she raves about how awesome you are....
i know a sh*t test when i see it... i think..
 

"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.

Working on the same thing here bro. GF asked to be in a relationship, was eating out of my hand a week ago...now there are signs of disrespect and power struggles.

I would say stay somewhat mysterious. No useless texting and keep it fun.

Knowing this however, there are those girls that you just can't win with. Figure that out and eject as necessary. I'm still learning too.

The comedian Amy Schumer has a lot of material about relationships that is brutally honest about the female perspective. Being true is what makes it funny.

"When I get into a relationship, I need to see just how much bvllsh!t the guy can take from me. I'll give him a little, then a little more, and then some more, until he finally puts his foot down. Then I'll back off entirely and be like OH...OK...That was what I needed to know...thanks! " :D

Make sure to set everything early on in the relationship and don't change your lifestyle around her.

If you've arranged to go out with the buddies and she want's a cozy night in with you, don't stay in with her.

Stay busy, when things are going awesome don't see her for a few days and watch what happens ;)

The attraction is already there....you simply need to avoid "lowering it". How does one drop their attraction level?

-He cares more about the relationship than the girl
-Too needy/Becomes emotional too fast + too much
-Too many gifts + acts of love(rapport)
-Failing sh1t tests(biggest one)
-Becomes boring and content with life now that he has GF
-Jealousy + overprotective

Savy? Biggest one for me is the sh1t tests. They are small things but can really add up to big things. Im in the early stages of a relationships and we are transitioning into the stage were her feelings are becoming more powerful so she now gives me common intimacy sh1t tests like:

-How does my hair look?
-I feel skinny today, do you notice?
-Do you miss your girlfriend?
-etc

Never turn into a sappy beta and answer her with "oh ya babe your so hott". It seems small but over time the tests will evolve. Just keep being a funny, witty alpha male and pass her tests with flying colors. REMEMBER...avoid avoid avoid. Or amplify to the absurdity.
 

"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.
