"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.

Is it reasonable that after a 2 year LTR your ex hooks up with someone around a month or so after the break-up? Would you suspect cheating if this happens?

How long do you usually wait? (If you wait at all)
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

The more important question is who cares what your ex is doing? Focus on your own life and move on. We all know that its not easy.

Most likely she was planning to dump you, I wouldn't care much for your ex-ho, bro. In this case, I think at most you should wait before getting back in the groove is at least 2-3 months. Some of the less experienced and lower esteemed people (like your exgirlfriend) are ready to jump on to the next boyfriend. Spend those 2-3 months doing a particular workout more efficiently, hike 15-20 miles, spend more time with friends, buy clothes for yourself, take a class, check out those cool movies you've heard about, etc.

If you just think "I'm going to hit the bars and do stupid myspace/craigslist online dating starting next week", you lose my respect as a man who "could've been."
