"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.

Quick question here, will probably sort its self out soon just wondering what's up...

So today at school, some girl I had one-itis for a little while ago (it went away but still), starts chatting to me in class, trying to hold conversation, leaning in, staring me in the eye, acting really nice on purpose... Yer all was going fine... But I was trying to bust on here a bit about something, and I notice how close she gets to all of her girl friends... So I sort of pick up on that "Woah how close do you wanna get," ya know nothing big just light-hearted... And I'm not too sure how she took it... It was like, half as though she knew I was joking and half as though she took offense from it. She was like "What? Oh my god I don't like him any more." I was like, woah is she serious, and then she put on some voice like "disgusting," in a joky voice though. God knows what she thought of that, lol maybe in future I should find other things to bust on her about, or what?

"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.

Don't worry about it too much...I mean, I guess I would avoid something that pisses her off, but it doesn't sound like she was terribly upset...else she wouldn't have sounded joky (not sure that's a word, but it's the closest to an adverb form of joking I can get).

But, and I can't stress this enough, don't stress out about it.

Okay cool mate, thanks Ed, it's just the concept of "I don't like him anymore." That made my ears p**** up.

Which was undoubtedly the effect she was going for...
It's just a shyt test, my man.
 

"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.
