"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.

great line, Im a huge fan of CnF partly because Ive been doing it my whole life, who knew it was a technique that works!
 

"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 said she was going to be at the zoo all day or something to that effect. He busted on her telling her she's an "animal" in a joking way.

It really isn't that hard to understand.
I understand it, but telling a girl she's an "animal" is funny? Not very James Bond like IMO.

So what if its not James Bondish? Its just humor. No one said that you had to be a complete slick ass to pull this kinda sh!t off.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

On one hand, I think it wasn't that bad of a C&F line, but it was a little immature/corny. Not really a bad line but there is much better. You yourself are 16, and lines like this are great for teenage years because they are kind of corny. However I also agree with the person who said its not that funny. If the OP is over 20-25 or so, then I would think that this would be a horrible line, because becasue at a certain point everybody's sense of humor matures.

I ASSUME the OP was probably young, and in that case, I think it was a pretty good use of C&F. Just depends on who you ask, the 16-25 y/o crowd is going to think this was a great line, and the 25-50 crowd isn't even going to get it, or they will think it is stupid.

It works for you because you aren't using it as a technique :cool:

Personally, I don't think C+F has an age limit.
