"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.

I met and got a # from a girl at the bar, dont really know her that good, i plan on calling her tonight and setting up something for tomorrow. whats the best way to do this? i was thinking call her and find out what shes doing this week, if she doesnt say anything tomorrow im going to ask her to go to this one bar place with me.

whats the best backup plan if she says she cant or something? just call back another time or what?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

If she says she can't make it, don't say "well how bout the day after, or the day after that, or whatever..." Pretend you have a life too, even if you don't ;) . You could go with something like... call her on sunday and say "hey, you wanna do something on tues or wednes" If she says no to both then you can do something another time.

Sometimes if she says she's busy on one day, but offers another day. I'll say something like "I'll be in later on around 9-10 on *the day she offered*, because I have hockey practice (or something). Why don't I give you a shout after my practice is over and we can do something?" This give you more power because it makes you look like you have stuff to do, and it doesn't make you look needy.
