"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.

First, a self assessment so you can fully understand this.

I grew up very over-protected and I only recently realized women, the world, etc. Physically, I have a handsome face, though I do have glasses and only an average body due to a lack of exercise. Mentally, I rule. My grades rock and I run the comedy club at my school. Socially, I have a massive group of friends and a very varying group of really close friends. Hence, I really have no other problems but with women/dating.

11th grade seemed like one big curse to me. Over the course of that year, I got rejected by the coolest girl in school four times (though I only asked her to prom once), the smartest girl in school, and some Freshman girl with an amazing personality and bod. It seemed like a massive stream of rejection and I have yet to find out why.

This year (senior year) is the first time I ever took a girl to a dance. It was really easy b/c I just asked one of my really good friends who had a very small social circle. I had an awesome time, but she really didn't like dances (she told me after we had gotten there lol) or dancing. After convincing her for at least one slow dance, I thought the night turned out really great as I had an excellent time. Unfortunately, she outrightly said that she didn't two days later.

One thing I notice that has gotten in my way a lot is that almost everyone I meet instantly considers me their friend, and women tend not to take me seriously due to my comical nature. It rocks because I have no enemies whatsoever. The downside is that this includes women too. Whenever I try to flirt, I always get reminded that I stand in the friend zone and nowhere else.

I sought out this site because I feel that I'm miss something. There is a fire out there and I want to mess with it no matter how many times it burns my fingers. Hence, I am seeking the help of true Don Juans, such as yourselves. Does anyone have any advice on how I could end this losing streak?
 

"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.

1. Go to gym

2. Eat healthy

3. Get contact lenses

4. Get some style/new clothes

5. Get good at a hobby

You obviously have the personality. You need the looks/confidence/experience now. Give yourself 3 months "out of it". Just focus on the list for 3 months, and then jump back in. You'll go from having an average body to having a hot body, you'll go from having a handsome face to a hot face, and you'll go from averagely dressed guy to "guy-who-has-his-sh1t-together-guy", and you'll go from funny guy with no life to funny cool guy.

I'm not asking you to trust me, I'm telling you thats how I did it.

Aight. Great info. Though contact lenses really don't allure me. They have lead my friends into many painful eye infections and many dangerous driving situations. They do take focus off my eyes, which kinda annoys me because of their importance in psychology, but I still don't think their advantages outweigh the negs.

I do need more people to rant at me about working out. I sit around watching funny videos and playing online games way too much. Must stop loafing. TIs really hard to learn how to get up and get active. I'm at step 0 here. Any suggestions on good starting exercises? I'll check out the fitness forum later.

Style/clothes don't matter as much as I like due to the mandatory uniform policy at my school. My wardrobe is probably 100% preppy methinks, all Fox and Billabong. Suggestions here would be helpful too.


Currently, my only really useful hobby is acting and that really doesn't seem to be helping me get fit. If I find someway to integrate hobby and fitness I'm set, it looks like. Thanks so far though. I just read the bible entry on the importance of focusing on yourself and not only women. Crazy good stuff by Pook, who must have major skillz.

(edited for Addman, lol) Thanks, whatever you wish to be called. Great ideas. Anything else?

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Yes. Dont call us "homies" :trouble:

lol

spend some time looking though Health and Fitness forums. particularly ones done by Warboss Alex.

as for social skills and such, DJ boot camp would be a good place to start.

your background in acting could be useful. Use it to develop charm and charisma

You want advice so start taking it. Get the contact lenses. Try them for a month and see if it changes the way women look at you. Youll know within days. Then if after a month it didnt make enough of a difference, switch back.

Work your ass off in the gym at the VERY MINIMUM 3 days a week. In 6 months you will be in amazing shape compared to your peers and that is all that matters at your age. You need the edge and that is the edge woman go crazy over. Youll have to try MUCH less once you look great. Remember, you are the prize, but only as good of a prize as you make yourself to be.

If the contact lenses don't work you can get some designer glasses (like current popular ones hopefully sporting a logo) It will boost your social proof.

You know, some people would look better with classy glasses I'd imagine...but contact lenses are definitely worth a try, especially if you're a guy that always wears glasses. People should notice/comment and stuff.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Just remember, dont get too arrogant that you forget to be funny. ****y and funny are meant to be mixed. Dont hurt peoples feelings with your arrogance unless youve studied how to do so in a way that keeps them intersted (called a Neg )
