"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.

This is what you can get from a girl when you use text and video messages, ie. just the same as you would in reality. That's a girl I haven't even met yet. There's a reason why romantic and erotic literature sells, and it's not because they open the book in half and use the paper to rub their **** with but because you can stimulate a woman by her brain too.

If you can't keep her interest over text it's because you are not her priority and/or your game isn't as tight as it could be, not because texting sucks. @Poon King said something I think is loosely related to that recently, when he basically said that women who have you as a priority won't lose interest over waiting for you. And for guys who are recovering AFCs, texting is a great place to take your L-plates off mentally because you can think about and analyse every line for what works and doesn't. It just sucks for AFCs because they would do that to obsess and become needy instead of improving their game and getting into a good, relaxed frame.

Obviously you still wanna meet up with girls ASAP because that's the point, but it's time to move with the times.

Happy hunting guys.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Personally I try to stay away from texting as I dont feel I´m very good at it, so mainly I text to setup dates or as replies to something they might text me first.

How do you go about teasing them AttackFormation?

No mate, i still disagree.

If a chick likes a guy, she will slways want to meet ASAP. Otherwise her IL are low.

Low IL = waste of time.

interest level and texting has a direct link

the longer she takes to respond to you the lower her interest level is

a chick whos keen on you wont risk taking longer than 15 mins to respond , unless there is extreme circumstances that would allow her to take her longer

but that would obviously only happen once or twice

I've had a ton of success increasing attraction by texting during the initial stages of dating. I keep it light, fun, flirty, charming, and fast moving. I can use about anything as a springboard to say something funny/slightly sechsual. Its no different than flirting in person.
 

"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.
