"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.

When looking for the ideal gift, I can't imagine much better than an organic spice rack (costs only about $65).

1) It won't seem cliche or overly romantic like chocolates.
2) It's quite affordable (about the ideal price for a gift).
3) A spice rack with the world's finest spices (buy non-Irradiated) will provide her a kitchen centerpiece.
4) It will inspire her to learn how to cook.
5) It will keep her fit and healthy (home cooked meals are the key).
6) It will remind her of you for years (the jars are refillable).
7) You will provide countless sensual experiences as she combines them to make different meals.
8) Spices have high antioxidant and medicinal benefits (the healthier she is, the happier she is).
9) Spices will last practically forever and hold their value.
10) Spices have fragrant aromas, and many are known aphrodesiacs.

I just ordered 2. If you can think of any similar gifts post here.

Disclaimer: I do not make any commision from any spice companies. Just thinking of my Mom and Grandmother's kitchen.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Not a bad idea. I've always been kinda sucky with gifts.

I never give anything to women. Except sperm. If they don't treasure that gift, they don't deserve any other.

Give a woman a spice rack....if you want to be single. You way as well buy her an ironing board.

its agreed that we should only give her a gift if she deserves one but it has to be thoughtful and not something that says I have no clue what to buy so I bought you something you can use in the kitchen....unless this is still the 1950s.
