"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.

Now who gave you the right to judge what is wrong or right for this girl without even knowing whether she even sees what she has done as being wrong or right?

This is where the danger of placing blame lies. You can blame others and deem their actions as wrong, and all the while they are all happy with hurting your ass. You're constantly telling yourself and others that it's their fault. That they are the ones making your life miserable. They are the ones that made the relationship fail. They spoilt it all.

I do not doubt that the girl is going to live an unhappy life behaving in such a manner. Her behaviour is extremely destructive and toxic. However, I do not condone placing all the blame on others when you cannot accept that loss. If you are not willing to lose something, losing it would definitely be your fault.

It also apparently helps you not be coherent at all. Pay attention. She dumped him because he didn't accept her being a b!tch to him. I don't care if he thinks it's his fault or not. Her friends told him that they were seeing to her, so the fact is she should have been okay with that. She's being a controlling b!tch. So yeah, it is her fault. If it made her happier doing that, then she needs a moral gut check.

As long as DrMetallica is able to let her go because she's a bytch, I agree that it's her fault. If it's hard for him to let go of a controlling bytch, then both of them are at fault.

And maybe I'm looking at it too deeply. It's difficult when you only get one side of the story and I have no idea how the girl actually feels about the whole incident.

Wait, no, you just changed the story. First you said "The girl could be happier without him and I can't exactly say that it is her fault for making herself happier now can I?" and now you said "If it's hard for him to let go of a controlling bytch, then both of them are at fault." The latter at least makes sense, but you are backpedaling.

You see, I said she 'could' be happier. However, most likely she won't be happier overall because her character is flawed. I did indeed backpedal a bit but only because I wanted to highlight the fact that the girl's position has got to be considered too.

Although the outcome is that both of them may very well share the blame, getting to this conclusion is not as easy at it seems if you do not want the same thing to happen and the same feelings to return again and again.

Blame is a very dangerous thing. It's so easy to dish it out without understanding how you actually choose to place it. Since blame is often used to push all responsibility to other people, it does not compel the person blaming others in changing. Besides, it should be his fault for hooking up with such a crazy bytch.
 

"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.

Let me clarify that I said if she's happy, how can you fault her. After that I said that I personally think that she most probably won't be happy because of her attitude, thus it's both their fault.
