"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.

Update: I get an email asking for help.

I reply "sure, whatsup?" and she tells me she is applying for a job in the country where her fiance is and needs help with doing the cover letter.

I said "yea thats easy. find attached a sample cover letter. just tailor to the job description."

She replies a day later "sorry i'm just replying now you won't believe how busy I have been. I messaged you on whatsapp last night. find attached the job description. thanks."

At this point I laugh because (1) Her fiance apparently sucks intellectually and can't help her. (2) She thinks I'm actually going to do the cover letter for her. (3) She send me that whatsapp message at 4AM.

So I replied. "replied to your whatsapp message. job sounds good. now just copy, paste and edit into the cover letter I sent you."

No communication since. LOL she really thinks she can use me.
 

"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.

Forget it mate. You're officially a beta hanger.

I wouldn't even have sent the template.

By the sounds of it, she ain't too hot intellectually herself; hence they're made for each other. If she can't write her own cover note, she don't deserve the job.

Find a hot, intelligent woman, man. You deserve it. Are there any in Djibouti??

a beta hanger? i dread that. didn't give her what she asked for and don't plan on contacting her. hopefully that will show her i don't play beta games unless there is a reward.

yea there are smart, intelligent women here. problem is the culture and religion really makes things difficult. i'm applying daily for better positions to get out of here.

Excellent. Focus on your own prospects, rather than those of some broad who by the sounds of it is not going to reciprocate your efforts.

The beta-hanger comment was only figurative by the way. Sounds like you have the right mind set. Always difficult to leave old baggage behind though.

It's a dog-eat-dog world man. Forget anyone who doesn't reciprocate the same level of efforts that you put forth.
