"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 am 35 years old, and suddenly feel like it is too late for me to ever become a DJ.

...still so much for me to overcome

4. Muscular but still chubby physique
5. Lack of a proper social group. Have a lot of female friends but many of them tend to undercut me when I am with other women, so can;t use them as social proof.
6. Lack of "exciting" hobbies - No experience in motorbike riding, skydiving or any of those things that women seen to consider "manly"

Any suggestions or tips?

fwiw, I have started training mixed martial arts with my local dojo of cage fighters. My first fight will not be until later in the year, but simply training in a martial art, boxing, or mma can solve all three of those problems. The social group comes from the friends you make while training.

Also fwiw, at my weight, I will likely be fighting some 19 or 20 year old kid. I turn 32 next month. Your age, much like your life, is what you make of it.
 

"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.

It is. We have to stop making excuses why we can't take chances and live. I'm just turned 31 and doing everything differently.

The funny thing is when I was younger I said "but I'm too young to do that" now it's "too old to do that" and the common denominator is my attitude.
