"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.

The movie you guys should see is Hyde Park on the Hudson. On the change between relations with Great Britain and the U.S. in the 30's. Will probably be getting this one on DVD to put it together with Public Enemies:up:
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I went to the movies to see Lincoln. best movie i've seen since Public Enemies ironically enough.

It will be a classic when it's all said and done IMHO.

Public Enemies was one of my favorites too. Just the whole feel of another era plus Michael Mann directed.

You know every time Daniel Day Lewis get's involved in a project he just get's completely immersed into the character. I can't wait to get it on DVD.

I read the Lincoln biography a while back and finally saw the movie tonight. I do recommend it.

I've see a couple of his biographies. If you want a good read in the mind of a great guy. Check out the memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant.
 

"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.
