"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.

Askmen.com article on dating hot women

"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.

None of those are issues to me. Maybe the ego one, but I like that too. They should call the list 'problems you might face dating hot women (if you don't feel you deserve them).

agreed... is it just me, or does it seem like men's health, men's fitness, and some others are written by women and metros?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Like I said, I don't think he is talking about your typical attractive/cute/hot woman, but your stunningly beautiful women (e.g. Natalie Portman, Jess Simpson) look alike. The cream of the cream, the women that have "triple take" faces.

While this article might come across as self-limiting, I think it is reality. Face it, some dudes just don't give a flying fukk and will hit on a girl right in front of you or be an a-hole to you. I think this is more likely to happen if you are with a 9 of 10.

True but if she's really into you who cares? (Quality) Women are very capable of telling guys that they aren't interested. Besides, if another guy thinks your girl is hot, doesn't it attest to your choice of women?

A healthy ego should keep you from getting jealous or disrespected, especially if you carry yourself in such a way authentically. The interesting thing is that if you do, other guys tend to become jealous and bitter. Better them than you because uncontrolled jealousy and bitterness will drive women away.
 

"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.

Askmen used to be a good site, now it's just a ****hole with most of the articles having backing from some advertiser.

lol I love this one:

"no-one will notice you in her presence"

Oh, no! my fragile self esteem! I will no longer be the belle of the ball.

Seems like the guy who wrote that article is a virgin...
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

seems like the author had a traumatic experience based on his own insecurities and wrote an article generalizing both beautiful women and the men who date them. I'll generalize further a bit by saying that it seems that the target of this article are guys who want to date any hot woman regardless of her personality.

I agree with the points that hot girls get attention, but the rest were all security issues that deal with the guy. Some guys aren't ready to date very beautiful women. There is a balance between jealousy and obsessiveness that guys can cross, with beautiful women it becomes that much more difficult. It comes back to the motives. If you are dating her because you want to and have a healthy relationship (or at least give her as much freedom as you expect) than what good does jealousy serve? The second you start to worry or become jealous of attention is the second you can pin point that relationship starting to die. That said you find the crazy hot chick and the jealous d-bag and they might live together in their own drama for the rest of their lives loving it.

I qualify on attitude mainly, looks second. I wont go for a girl who I dont find attractive, but I wont date an attractive girl with a terrible attitude. I've dated a few headturners (am currently) but only will if they have a personality to match their looks. It doesn't take very long to separate the worthy from the pointless.

Do you think there are more chicks in the 18-35 range who are ugly or average OR cute or hot? Cute being the 7's and 8's, hot being 9's and 10's

definitely vote for the majority being ugly or average. There is a reason why the word average means what it means (not ugly not cute). I think that most everything outside of the average category tends to fall into personal preference categories. One mans trash is another mans treasure (or soap) type of system. My HB8 might be your HB6 and vice versa.
