"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.

I abolsutely LOVE chuck taylors ( http://www.la-story.com/upload/2007/12/Converse_Chuck-Taylor-All-S.jpg )
and its because you can wear them with almost anything in the right color.
I got some extra cash laying around and I wanted to pick up another pair of shoes, but I wanted something as flexible as Chuck taylors. You can literally wear these things to any occasion and im curious if anyone else has a pair of sneakers that they could share so i could make a good purchase. pictures would be great
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Very sweet. The only problem I have with high-top trainers is that I can't stand not having the tougue covered by my jeans. How do you wear them? Messy with the tougue showing or overalled by your jeans?

I'm relatively just Vans, Perry Boat deckshoes, Nike Air Max One/90s, Supra's, Air Force One, Asics Mexico 66, Lacoste and Lonsdale.
 

"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.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

No. You can't. Or you should not. They are not dress shoes and would never qualify IMO.

I had a pair of Chuck Tailors that I quite liked. They were grey denim and a nice pair of shoes, but they're made like crap. They fell apart and destroyed my socks in the process. I literally wore through the fabric on the inside by the heel, then worse through the rubber behind it to just the outside fabric. I'm certain if I'd continued wearing them that I would have had a giant hole in the back of my shoes. You're better off getting one of those environmentally friendly clones than you are buying the original ones made in sweatshops.

I don't have a ton of shoes. My go-to pairs right now are a basic black leather with red lace/accent pair of Creative Recreations and then my bigger Piloti G16s.

No, I normally wear them at the beach easy to put on and off.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

You have to run properly. Don't land on the heel.

Most shoes are like this. They have this huge cushion on the heel making you lazy. That's not the proper way, and it really doesn't help for speed and endurance.

It's not that,the protection and cushioning are fine. It's the fact that my toes were spreading free on on uphill over rocks and stuff. My shins got the brunt of it because the were flexing in unfamiliar ways.

Well, now I know what to expect. I've been looking at the five fingers for running instead of the Nike Free.

If your shins hurt, that means they're the weakest link. They'll strengthen.
