"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.

That should be a cardinal sin huh? Haha. Mon. Night she told me via text that she is planning on moving out of state. But she had so much fun on our first date,wanted to stay in contact, really liked me and wish she could hangout with me more. We made out, she felt up on my ****tails on the first date. Anyways once she spilled out her feelings, I thought it was a safe assumption to say hey "come hangout with me tonight". But she replies that she's hangin out with friends, and that she's sorry. I said we"ll try for another day she replidd she'll be busy with the move,etc but she'll let me know. I've nexted, but I conaider myself a vet here, and I still get burned from time to time.
 

"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.

She probably had a date. Do you think she wanted to be single on Valentine's day?

Actually, the cardinal sin is what you did. You made the mistake of assuming her interest meant that she wanted you to reciprocate. Or, that she'd respond favorably to it. That's a big no-no. She's showing interest because you aren't. That's how you gotta keep it going for a while. Women like to chase and feel like they earned you, so let them.

She's with her main dude obviously.

Every last one of my girls that I'm currently banging hit me up yesterday and I didn't respond to any of them. If they didn't hit me up yesterday then I could say they are with another dude for sure! I didn't do anything yesterday but work and community service. Screw national tricking day. Yesterday was actually productive!

9 times out of 10, women usually only risk rejecting "a sure thing" for what they perceive as a "better thing", or simply...the possibility of hopefully finding a "better thing".
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Well this is.one of the last times she'll see her friends. So it's understandable. But I know there is also ex drama goin on too. Which is probably the main dude.

From New Orleans, Louisiana to Atlanta, Georgia!!!
Valentine's day should be called Chumps Awareness Day. :woo:

I do understand that you've been burned, but I've found you guilty of failure to maintain the frame.

Women want what they can't have. In this case, she wanted you, but she knows she can have you.

The friend she's hanging out with is more than likely another dude. I am glad that you understood that your princess is in another castle (Moved on) and I respect you. Mostly because you didn't cry about it.

Keep on truckin'!

Case closed.
