"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.

Hey so my friend invited me down to this motorsport event we go to every year, and i brought my other buddy too, had a good time gamed chicks, good photos, now today I get a message from friend #1's girlfriend basically freaking out at me for apparently forcing him to come with me and making hit on other girls among other things. when i did not and basically buggered off with my wingman and did my own thing the entire time.

Now i don't know her at all, but from what i've seen shes controlling and hes too AFC to realize shes a very low quality girl, not even hot.

Now I know a hundred times over the right thing to say to something like this is "okay" and delete the message, but i dont know what it was, it just got to me, and i responded with another comment starting an argument.

It got me thinking, i do this alot... i know what to say but don't and start to argue and explain, like i feel this uncontrollable anger and need to do this.

How do I deal with this when talking to chicks or even guys that piss me off? whats the DJ thing to do and say?

ive lost my past girlfriend because she got tired of this too. I dont go all crazy and start being physical or anything i just get really pissed and start saying things that prob dont even make sense and trying to explain.
 

"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.

Getting pissed at the drop of a hat is the quickest way to alienate people from your life. You seriously have to better control your emotions. Don't be one of those people where it feels like walking on eggshells to be around.

Odds are the girl didn't even bring this up with the boyfriend and instead went to blame you. I think that she was just jealous and blamed you for putting the BF in a position in which he would possibly stray. Oddly enough this might make him more attractive in her eyes if the pictures are of you two and other hot chicks. Social value, eh? But seriously, if she gets this upset at him over a little trip I can't imagine if he would even be "allowed" to go on vacation for an extended period of time without her.

Moral of the story. Don't let girls tell you what you can and can't do and lose the short temper. Arguements rarely make you think highly of the other person at the end, but there are instances in which you would need to put your foot down no matter the cost. This just wasn't one of them.

haha nice one, but no, usually i dont get pissed but this just annoyed me. especially cause i dont know her well, its the equvilant of a stranger coming up to you and bluntly insulting you. But i wasent as bad as mel in my response, went more alonr the lines of " perhaps you should trust your boyfriend more, and **** off im not here to listen to your issues"

on a second other note, on her message she ranted a long time about how plastic and stuff these other girls looked like, even though they were all natural like 8's and 9's i was gaming, and shes like a 5. Whats with uglier less hot and less smart girl hating on more attractive more successful girls?

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

2 things here

1) That chick is retarded and your friend is a pvssy for even telling her what you guys did at the event.

2) Count to 10, and take long deep breaths before saying anything. While doing so, try to clear your mind of any thoughts angering you, and don't try to "clear them up" or dwell on the fact that you are correct. Yes, you may be right, but getting pissed is not the right response.

I've had anger management issues myself, and can tell you that a lot of it has to do with stress. Poor sleep, bad eating habits, lack of exercise and not enough fresh air (from being indoors on a computer all day) all catch up to you, increasing your stress levels to the point that you become irritable AND could potentially lead to high blood pressure and cardiac disease.

The best solution (but by far the hardest) is to not dwell on these thoughts that anger you. As important it is to you to justify yourself in your mind, just let it go man. Don't dwell on your thoughts. Think about tits or whatever gets your mind off being pissed off.

Jealousy and their unwillingness to do anything to improve themselves. They think that they're smarter or nicer or have more "personality" but in reality they're just being lazy about their looks, which says a lot about their personality, ironically enough.
