"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 never married and see no reason for it.

I remember asking my mom when i was like 5-6 years old something like; "Mom, if you really love each other then why should I have need to write it down on paper saying 'I love you'?"

My mentality around this has never changed and never will. Why should I have the government to guarantee that I love my girl?
(And invite them to steal at least 50% of my sheite if things goes south).

It makes no sense and it is pointless. If two people really love each other then the mutual trust/love should establish that, not the fvcking church or the government.

Now with that said then add all the risk included these days and you would be crazy to do it. If someone told you that there is a 75% change that your plane would crash, would you still board that plane?
Highly likely not. So why should you enter a legal contract with someone + the government when the statistic is clear about that about 75% of all marriages end up in divorce within 3 years?

Add on top of that in most cases, I think it is about 85of the cases the woman is the one to break up... + everything else of crazy stuff..

So...
Nope, never.

I don´t mind if the "right person" comes along and have LTR, family/children and stuff etc. But I will never put fking ring on her finger.
So it not about that. I just find the whole idea of marriage and solidify your love on paper is retarded and unnecessary.
Lol. Frankly I agree with this ^ but HE wants to marry. I’ve been there done that. But it’s important to HIM. Obviously he’s going to sign a solid pre-nump. He already knows that’s required. So I don’t need the speech.

I’d be fine living in sin the rest of my life but he wants the ceremony. Ok fine.

I agree 40s never married men are set in their ways. Accept or leave.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
