"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.

A sobering dose of AFC I encountered

One morning recently, I finished up a test and was thirsty so I went to the coffee shop for some tea. There I sat down to drink and overheard these 2 AFC guys with grey hair probably in their 50's or 60's talking to each other. One of them looked like a sleezy used car salesman and wouldn't stop complaining about his lady friend..and then she calls. He says something along the lines of "What you want me to come over now...OK I'll be there in FIVE MINUTES." Practically on his knees, pathetic....just PATHETIC. I could tell this man was a B!tch because it took the baristas forever to whip up whatever wussy ****tail he ordered.
This inspired me not to be as weak as these AFC creeps when I'm that old or ever, so I go directly back to school and sarge on 3 HBs in the same classroom, getting all their info ;). This pitty-party also reminded me that there is other stuff I can do with my valuable time instead of being anyone's B!tch. This brings me to my A.M. session on the heavy bag :box:
I began sparring on the heavy bag and my head throbbed with each jab I landed due to a headache a few hours prior. I assured myself the pain would reside and it did so in a minute and I kept on throwing jabs. The same is said with rejections, it takes any HB 2 seconds to tell you "no" but you keep on sarging and it doesn't even phase you anymore like the pain.
I practice my sparring on this heavy bag and keep coming back for more. I can train like an animal but I know I won't be able to hit forever because I get exhausted, but even when I'm winded I continue delivering each hit with bad intentions, where as a wimp would just slap at the bag doing no harm and even QUIT. Don't be that guy that quits after 2 rejections.
Eventually I have to wrap up each session on the bag, but the punching bag still hangs after all the abuse I inflict. With that said, the sea will always be filled with plenty of fish. Keep fighting boys.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Thanks, this is my 1st ever thread since joining. I agree that anything you once did AFC doesn't even phase you anymore. I went through a bunch of No's b4 I got a yes but it outweighed all those No's combined. And to think those guys in the shop weren't even married haha.
 

"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.
