"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.

So as far as my parents know, I've never had a girlfriend, or even hung out with chicks much for that matter (Far, FAR from the truth) but now I'm exclusive with a girl, and I think it's about time to tell them -

How do you suggest telling really christian do-good parents (Just gotta worry about the mom if I do it before friday as dad's out of town) that I'm going out with a girl? I'm probably overreacting but I just don't want to play 20 questions every time I leave the house about every little detail because she thinks I'm off having sex (...).
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Don't worry dude, I had the same problem but my dad was surprisingly cool about it. Just dont try to hide too much from them and dont be pissy the first time or two they ask questions or they start suspecting stuff. If you got like a thing goin on where one parent's understanding and cool and the other one's really protective, get the cool one (my dad, in my case) to negotiate between you two, at least when you start off.

"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.

Ha that same situation happened to me a while ago. I was thinking of all sworts of ways to get rid of my mom's suspition and how i was going to tell her we were just "friends" and then when I told her who I was having over (someone she didnt even know) she was like ok, does she need a ride over here? and that was the end of it, I was shocked. I dont know about your parents but for mine if I get to do something once and dont fvck it up then i earn their trust and can do stuff whenever I want. Thank God they didnt go downstairs and check on me tho ;)

I dont think you need to go straight out and tell them that you have a gf. What I suggest you doing is go on a couple get to gethers with some other friends of yours preferably that your parents know of and your g/f, then when they ask you how it went tell her about it and include the girls name and what went on. (but just act like she is a normal friend) Then after she knows that you are just friends with this girl it will be much easier to do more and more stuff with her and eventually they might get the idea that she is your g/f but since you have been friends with her for so long they wont get freaked out.

odds are tho your definately over reacting and they wont care at all

and if all fails then just throw in their face "Fine I guess you want me to be gay then?" lol ;)

“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.
