"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 am dating someone who has a HIL (high interest level), partly because I am good at being slightly ****y(in a light, flippant way), unpredictable, fun, and am good at neg hittings.

She loves it. But she STILL is going to complain about it.

This is just how women are. Since you are smarter it will be easy to see the double double way she's going to look at it.

The most obvious thing she said over the weekend is ' why dont you ever compliment me? Youre always putting me downn. You must not even like me'

When I heard it i knew my attitude was coming across. Not in a mean way, but she no way was bored with me.

My response was more of the same. No reason to get all sappy then. I shrugged it off with 'i only kid people who can handle it' or something like that. Of course she loved it.

refuse to let her complaints prevent you from the attitude.
 

"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.

It's definitely a test. Now, a question about your choice of words:

what does being ****y in a flippant type of manner imply? I'm curious as it sounds more negative than it probably is.
