"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.

Okay, I got this girl's e-mail like 2 weeks ago, because we were doing something in class where we have to do like 10 problems, but the assignment seemed long as sh!t, so I asked here you just want to do it together, you do half and I do half. So we exchanged e-mails to be able to send our parts.

Now, yesterday, we were in class doing the usual talking. I was asking her if she was going to see King Kong and sh!t, saying how tight it is. And she was like "oh, it came out today?" And I was like "nah, wednesday" And then she asked me if I was going to see it today(yesterday) I'm like I'm going to see it today or tomorrow(which is today). Then she was like who I was going with, I replied "I don't know yet" like an idiot!! Then we talked about something else and then the bell rung. Awwwe man, I think I should've asked her who she was going with, then ask her if she wanted to go. Dam, I felt major regret after class calling myself stupid and stuff. I told my friend about this and he thinks I should've asked her out, too. Also, I take another class with her earlier in the day where we're like in the opposite ends of the rooms, and the bell was going to ring like in 2 minutes and she actually came up to talk to me saying whats up.

Anyways, I don't want to wait till monday to talk to her again, I'm sick of waiting. So heres how I plan my message and I'm asking you guys if you think its alright before I email it:

Message:

man oh man, i feel like chilling, i wanna call ya up, but for some stupid reason, i don't gotcha number!! sooooo, what is ya digitz, gladness?

"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.

What's with this slang I read?

Good job reliezeing you missed the boat the first time there, and that was a failure to observe. As for now..your email should not include...

"man oh man, i feel like chilling, i wanna call ya up" - bad...
"i don't gotcha number!!" - Duh.
" sooooo, what is ya digitz, gladness?" - That is lame
", but for some stupid reason, " - self-putdown.

This is what's left

Basically, wait her out and when you see her monday, tell her how a different movie was, she might re-bring up the subject again.

lol yeah, thats just my personality when I talk online. Man, I want to talk to her, but she never comes online, though. I guess I'll just wait until monday. Dammit, I need to do something quick cuz this week will be the last week before winter break which is like 10 days.
