"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.

Hey guys, this is a far cry from my usual threads, but there was this 3set of two HB6s and their guy-friend and me and two friends approached. No really special opener...unfortunately I forgot most of what went down, but I ended up pulling the number of the hottest one in the set. Next time I'll get a better FR...promise

So basically we approached and I made sure to make alot of C+F comments, but my main focus was on disarming the girl's friend and that guyfriend of theirs, because they would easily be sure to c0ckblock me. Anyways, my target takes my phone and puts her number in it. I texted her to see if it was a legit number and she responded, so I guess this is a success!

Anyways, I haven't formally asked her out on a date, but I will today. I'm thinking about movie, and yes, I know it's definitely not the best place to take her out, but its a pretty conservative choice.

Should I focus on kiss closing?
 

"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.

yeah man I would go for a kiss at least. You can gauge her response to see how much she's into you. Good job.

Right, read this post very, very carefully. Then read it again.

One of the biggest mistakes guys make, and which I make every single time despite knowing otherwise, is thinking that the pick-up is done and dusted or that you've achieved something worthwhile by getting a number or facebook close.

The reality is that in the moment, if the girl likes you, whether it be sexually, platonically or somewhere in between, her emotions are positive enough so that she'll dish out the number. Girls do this pretty often, that's essentially why their social circles are so large and why they know so many people. So by getting the number DO NOT THINK that she definitely wants to meet you.

Usually girls flake when you get their number unless they are REALLY into you and your game is tight so they meet up, otherwise even if they're into you then can talk themselves out of it. From this point you need to play the game. You need to text her, build comfort, talk to her on the phone, show value and trust, then eventually ask her to meet up for something very simple.

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT ask a girl out on a date straight away in a text. You can try it if you like, but it just doesn't work. I have a phonebook full of sexy 18-22 year old girls that either flaked, or I met up with and it didn't go well. Use routines if it does the job even.

Good luck.

OH yeah and don't neglect what Mad just said. I only said to go for a kiss if she actually goes out with you. It's doesn't really matter where you go but I would try and make it something where you guys can have fun. Movie might be a little boring. Try and just meet up for coffee or something and have a movie planned in your head and find out if she's up for it. Also, don't call too soon. That'll ruin it.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
