"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.

is wearing a evening cologne like dolce gabanna /armani code during the day time a social faux pas? i just bought both after some sampling but it turns out both colognes are recommended for "evening use"...does this mean i can't wear them to school or work?

does wearing cologne have its traditions like not wearing socks with sandals or shoes and belt not matching?

curious
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

No, that's not what it means.


Yes, some colognes will "work" better with different attire. For example, I personally, would prefer to wear Drakkar Noir with a formal outfit, such as a tux for prom or something, where as Cool Water or Curve: Crush when I'm just hitting the movies.

that's them trying to maintain their scents' cachet, by getting everyone to associate that smell with dapper young men.

wear it whenever the hell you want.

I dunno about the dolce gabanna, but I wore armani code to school last term and I got at least two compliments a day about how nice I smelled.
I wear code of an evening, every girl I know has told me how nice I smell...

In the Archives there is this like 15+page discussion on colognes make a search for it and it should give you tons of diff colognes and when they work best...

but my recommendation is go to store, grab a whole lot of cologne samples and try em out at different day times. That will give you a good idea of what works... since colognes react differently from person to person.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

there is no such thing as morning and evening colognes, there are diff types of cologne such as a musky or a spice or a freashness scent...wear what ever you want.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
