"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.

Be careful who you meet on the internet. Don't let this be you.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I see that AW's are only half the problem with online dating....

the other half is pranksters men who get off on dogging their fellow men for no reason

Just for fun one time, I made a POF profile with pictures from this smoking hot girl I used to know, to see how many messages I would get.

I don't even remember the number of messages. All I remember is that it forever changed my perception of the online game and it was really, really, REALLY insane how many messages came, and what they said.

I've never been a fan of the fake profiles thing....but it would be hilarious to see the results of this:

Create an account for a semi-attractive pregnant woman. Not too hot. Not ugly. Attractive enough to draw interest.

I'd love to see if there are any saps who are willing to take on the burden of a preggo chick that they never met just because she's kinda pretty.

I mean...don't really do this. But I'd love to see just how low our gender is willing to go to get some booty.
 

"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.

This makes you think, so its mostly guys pulling the prank all the guys that showed up would meet up with a girl without even knowing how she sounds like.

My results were similar, I think I got even more than that. What struck me though was that I had like 20 messages within 5 minutes. It was insane. And the messages were so pathetic... I got many that just said "hey" or something like that.

That Annabell thread is hilarious.

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

man thats evil lol. funny though. reminds me of what i did once. was chatting to a guy and he thought i was a 14 year old girl and asked to meet and i played along saying i had a friend with me and we wanted to get drunk. decided to get him to drive really far like an hour or more with a sh1t load of alcohol to this place and he was thinking two 14 year old girls were gonna meet him there, jump in his car and get drunk with him. i also had a friend who was a girl (she sounds young) to call him and make it seem legit.

he came back online angry as a mother fuker. some guys are just so dumb. he was 18 btw... or so he said.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
