"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.

Felt like sharing a couple other photos I took of the night sky a while back:

First one is of the small open cluster, M45:

http://home.comcast.net/~slitherjef/m45done.jpg

And the 2nd pic is of M31, which is due to slam into the milkyway (our galaxy) in about 2 billion years. Our sun is set to burn out in 5 billion years, so you figure M31 is headed for us at a quick pace, its currantly 2.9 million lightyears away...

I shot both with my camera and lens mounted on a telescope riding "piggy back" in my back yard

Enjoy
 

"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.

Since space/time/light bends in on its self due to the mass of the universe(according to Hawking if you fly in a straight line you end up where you started). It would be so cool if you could get a telescope powerful enough to see our own earth. It would be trillions of light years away (maybe) so we would be looking into the past.

Actually earth will not have been created yet. oh well, we will have to wait a few billion years then.

We could watch the creation of earth if we knew where and when to look.

On the other hand you could stumble across God, Saddam, and Jesus playing poker.


Jer, what kind of pictures can you take of the moon? You ever taken pictures of moon spots/flashes? Take us picture of the moon man, and also one of that closest star, 40 light years away.

"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.

No flashes or anything like that. I have a couple moon shots laying around some place, I will see if I can dig them up.

The closest star is actualy the sun, at 93 million miles away, a bit hard to photograph because you need special filters because of the brightness. But I think you where talking about Proxima Centauri located 4 and a quarter light years from the sun, or about 26 trillion miles. But photographing it I can't do since its in the Southern Hemisphere and Im in the northern.

Promixa Centauri is part of the Alpha Centauri star system

Sun is not a star. Because you can only see stars at night, you can't see Sun at night, can you? :)

wow someone didnt know the sun is a star. ok basically its the only star we can see during the day due to the sunlight that blocks our vision... it is the only star in our universe but there are billions of "suns" out there in other galaxies.
 

"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.

there are about 200 billion stars (suns) in the Milky Way alone, which is an average sized galaxy. there are hundreds of billions of galaxies. so the number of stars in the "known" universe would be at least

200 sextillion...

200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

give or take a hundredish sextillion.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I guess you think you can't see the moon during the day too, eh!?
Well the sun IS a star. A regular ol run-of-the-mill-yellow dwarf-star. And you can see the moon in during the day.. if you know where to look :trouble:
