"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.

About two months ago I left SS and just went into Monk Mode. I had joined this site after what, at the time, felt like a tough breakup. I'm now completely over that person and have done the following:

  • Read a ton about dating
  • Worked out / meditated on a daily basis
  • Changed my eating / drinking habits for the better
  • Enhanced my non-dating social life
  • Put in extra time at work and received positive feedback
  • Spent no time on OLD or going out trying to pick up women
Thank you to all on SS. I couldn't have improved myself as much as I did without your help!

The craziest thing happened in just the past few weeks. Two girls that are much better looking than my last girl (and also seemingly higher caliber human beings---but can't confirm this yet) have become interested in me at work. Girl A straight up asked me out and we are going to a wine tasting thing next week. Girl B and I have been escalating flirting to a high level and her roommate (an acquaintance) told me that she really wanted to spend more time with me. Girl A is beautiful, but Girl B is the one that I am more interested in.

Here's my question:
I just found out that I'm going to be at a work event where Girl A and Girl B will both be tomorrow. How do I handle this situation so that I don't lose one or both of the opportunities?
 

"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.

Just play it cool with both of them. Give everyone equal attention, infact you should maybe just bro it up with the work bros and just chat with the ladies in passing so as to keep things lowkey

Girl A has big interest and is an easy smash, so dont play games here. Go to the wine tasting an close the deal...eventually girl B (the one who you like) will find out about this little adventure and it will make her jealous. Use this to your advantage to get her really wanting you and then strike while the iron is hot and ask her out. Shouldnt be too hard to arrange.
