"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.

Hi,

I've been out with this chick 6 times and gave been texting with her for a few months. I really like her.

She seems to be taking a very slow approach to us, and she's very busy. I don't feel like she's brushing me off, but i WOULD like to spend more time with her.

After 6 dates should I be still be on the initiating most of the contact and asking her out on Formal dates? How often would you contact her? ANY advice would be helpful
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Therein lies the problem. It would be ok if things were equal, but it doesn't sound like she is that focused on you. Even if she's not dating anyone else, if she was that into you, then she would make the time to see you more.

I do agree with you. Maybe not text her or ask out again, but then i run the risk of her being bye bye. Which you always have to be prepared to walk.
 

"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.

Just date another girl or two, and things will take care of themselves. There's no reason to go ghost on this girl; just don't give her 100% of your time and effort when she is not doing the same for you.
