"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.

At 93, he’s as fit as a 40-year-old. His body offers lessons on aging.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Surprised to see just a normal looking gentleman. Thought it was going to be a click bait roided out dude with a gray beard pretending to be older than he is.

Muscle mass is the fountain of youth boys. (not roided out kill your heart shvt but natural muscle)

Dude is badass. Started lifting at 70. Guys there is no reason not to get fit. Do it NOW.
Hi Pierce,
Good post....I was surprised to see that the Guy spent most of his life as a Baker and a Battery Maker....Neither profession does well on the longevity stakes...Flour gets into your lungs and throat causes big problems,batteries were Sulphuric Acid and lead!!!....Not much muscle mass,wiry as a Greyhound....Agree very much with Hanoi Jane that longevity is very much a reflection of Genes and Money I would add and moderation in all things.

There’s some truth in what is said about having the physique of a canyon runner, as far as longevity is concerned.

I do, however have a question for you sir:

Do you do the fandango?
 

"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.
