"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.

A local bar where I hang out is having a speed dating event tonight.

The reason I am reluctant to go is because that's where I already hang out, and it's so small that I tend to meet everyone there anyway. It would seem to just be broadcasting that I'm single, and if I didn't meet anyone there things might end up worse off.

Has anyone tried speed dating and/or would you go to this event tonight?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I went to a speed dating thing once. They sit you with one female for say 8 minutes. You chat her up and then like musical chairs, you are seated with someone else for say 8 minutes. This goes on until you met every female that signed up. At the end, you secretly fill out a card or go online and click the ones you like. There is no rejection. If there is a mutual interest, you are given each others' contact info like email. You can also stay after the event and continue gaming some of them at the bar.

Overall, I had fun with it, but it might be awkward to try this at your favorite stomping ground. I would pass on this one and go to the next one that's held at a different venue. You don't need some c@ckblocking bartender or bouncer tell your speed date that you are at this bar every weekend or tell a bar girl that you were at a speed date event last week.

Been there, done that...

I tried it.
Mostly was filled with large lonely women.
Good practice for real life though.

Would avoid it at your regular watering hole.
