"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.

Basically we got in a fight month ago. She remained distant "giving us space", brushed of an attempt to see her, so I pulling WAY back and cut contact. She started coming around by sending blank texts (I ignored most), commenting on facebook, left a jealous sounding comment when I uploaded some bar pics with cute female friends, and finally texted last Sunday and we had a long conversation like normal. Monday she texts "have a good week" and pulls back. Does the same thing Thursday after a short exchange. She IM's me on facebook Friday, asking what's up, if I had plans, but I blew her off with one word answers. Of course, she sent a blank text the next day. Today she texts "Hope you have a nice spring, enjoy car season and good luck with your triathlons". I feel like shes desperately trying to get me to show interest because I won't chase and withdrew attention. What's the best reply in this situation? Balls in my court.. I want to make it work and the games to end, if that's possible. She's 27 !!
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

She sounds irritating as hell. Don't know why you're bothering with it.

First of all don't reply to that message. it's obviously reaction seeking. It may sound like a friendly text, but the only reason she's sending it is because it implies she won't see you any time soon. don't reply to that or simply reply "thanks, you have a good break too"

Then ignore all further attention seeking texts until you get an emotional one to which you reply: "Look I'm not mad or anything, but I really don't feel like playing games. If you want us to be cool again and have fun, we can get together and hang out. If not, that's okay too."

This is a situation where you have to be direct and assertive and basically communicate to her to cut the bullsh!t or get lost, but without losing your cool or composure. Handle this sh!t like a man.
