"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.

Went on a first date with this girl I met two weekends ago.

Things are going swell, making fun of her, she seems normal. After awhile, she kisses me. I was holding out til we were NOT at a bar getting a drink, as I am not into making out in bars/restaurants, unless I am going off a few beers.

Anyway.
I suggest going to her house, she agrees, so I follow her out there and we go at it for about an hour. When we are finished, I start to tear up in my eyes and start sneezing. She has two cats.

I am allergic to cats. So, I had to get out of there (which isn't a bad thing) but then I realized that if I want to continue having sex with this woman I am going to need to find a better place. (my place is out of the question, it sucks). I want to have more fun, but the allergies to her cats are killin it.
 

"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.

You know there is allergy meds. I too am allergic to cats but rarely do chicks tell you they have them until its too late. Could always just keep some claritin in the car or something.

Have had girls allergic to cats and my old roommate had a cat. It can suck, but they usually wanna have sex anyways. They don't always wanna spend the night though - I just drive em to the store to get some benadryl.

Sounds good except that I am the one that gets the reaction.......not her.....so it's an issue. Oh well, it'll work itself out.
