"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

The trick is to talk to people in what they are interested in

When I ask girls "so what are your hobbies?" they reply with

"hanging out with friends, watching movies, listening to music" and **** like that

I cant beleive this....

Can you guys tell me what their hobbies actually are?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Yes. Their hobbies are "hanging out with friends, watching movies, listening to music" and **** like that.

This is what girls do. Most chicks are boring.

But these things are good enough to get a conversation going.

That's why women (especially young women) like drama. It makes their life less boring.

They also like to read things like romance novels, which offers a healthy dose of fantasy.


Men are also boring. Talk to most guys, ask their hobbies, and they'll be like "Um, dunno".

Again, that's why men play video games and watch movies. It offers the fantasy.


That's when you come in (for the women, not the men) to offer adventure, excitement, and drama. ;)

ha nah what are you talking about? the man is the one who offers action and adventure in a womans life. A mens life is loveless without a girl, and a womans life is boring without a man. together they compliment each other
 

"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.

I always thought hobbies were like collecting fvcking stamps or something...
But yeah, okay. If being social, reading senseless mags, et cetera count as hobbies for woman, that makes woman really sad/boring people without men. Damn, its times like these I just rest my hands on my shlang and think how lucky we are to be men. (a moment please...)
Yeah. Its good.

Re:

It's not hobbies, but emotions they seek. Consider anything a girl does compared to what a guy does.

Men are INTERNALLY stirred up by their own personal emotions. You can't always seem them, but their results speak otherwise.

A guy who builds something with his bear hands MAY appear to be doing a mundane task until he builds his own MAN TOWN LOG CABIN.

A guy playing 18 holes of golf might appear boring, trivial, until he conquers the course and the demons inside of him that for so long prevented him from breaking par.

A girl on the other hand will elect moments where sparks of emotion are. Few girls can sit at home in quiet solitude doing nothing. And if they do, its usually masturbaing, worrying about something, getting involved in drama, reading romance novels, or beginnginer her lonely career as a spinster.


Men are into DOING things and WOMEN ARE into FEELING things. A woman enjoys sports not for the sport, but for the emotions of the sport. Girls who were into the Red Sox winning the world series, didn't like the Sox particularly or baseball, it was the shirts, the beers, the craziness, the events, the late nights out, the "big papi". It was like a whole movie, or soap opera. But during any mundane game any other time of the year, do they care? Not unless they are there in their pink hats, and big papi shirts with beer.


Women are sensitive, point blank. Their emotions are like a drug to an addict and the more they feel it the better. When they seek men, they to be protected for the things they can't be protected or provided and to feel deeply.


What sounds boring to men is the equivalent of what men do that sounds boring to women. Trying to DEBATE, PERSUADE, or EDUCATE them on it is like trying to explain WHY soap operas are so great, or trying to demystify WHY women like getting involved in their roomie's slutty sordid details. Emotion. Fulfillment. Life.


They're not going to have a hobby perse. Shopping, sure. But is that a hobby? No. Maybe STYLE is a hobby, but unless you do SHOPPING on some else's behalf it isn't a hobby, it's an addiction.

Learn to Bridge.


One thing I'm good at is Bridging. Many girls have said they feel they've known me their whole life when we only met a few moments ago.


Bridging means leading along a path. View the conversation with her like story, not an interrogation as most men are. We can hop topic from Sports, to Politics, to Sex, to Movies, to scratching our balls. Whereas with women, they're better to LEAD AND LINK their stories.

If you go...

M: Hey, what's up?
F: Nothing much.
M: Wow, you're that bored eh?
F: Yeah.
M: Why's that, you just finished school for the year, it's the summer, you gotta have something to do?
F: Sure, I'll tan, go the beach alot, and work.
M: Wow miss original. I might have to pass on the tanning girl-type though, come 30, you'll be a leater sofa and I'll be upgrading to a new model.
F: Ha...shut up.
M: Where you gonna tan? Nude in your neighborhood so the post man sees you in the moring?
F: Lol, no. In beds, at the beach, or with a bathing suit on.
M: Ahh, you seem like a thong girl, like someone who'd show her buns off to the beach.
F: Me, hell no.
M: Why's that?
F: My azz is fat.
M: Didn't you hear? J Lo azzes are in style?

Blah, blah.


Just play around with her. Women are just like they were when they were younger. Our NEEDS don't change as much, only when we get older we ASSUME that age brings intelligent and therefore we complicate things. Not needed.

Girls often like shopping, makeup, chatting, watching dramas (Korean, etc.), admiring hot guys, listening to music. A few like playing video games (tiles hop - apknite, etc.).
 

"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.

I think it really comes down to this, but the thing is most guys don ´t do many more things either. And what ´s worse most people don ´t even want to. I understand if they live like that but are open to adventure, new stuff to do, but most people are too lazy to even do anything extra.

I once got a chick text me she wanted to do something adventurous, like see the mountains where I lived, so I took her for a 40min hike and she almost ate me alive that she had to go uphill, sure you have to go uphill if you wanna go to the mountains. But most people just prefer to sit in a pub and talk sht that doesn ´t really matter.

I've known girls who like to do crafts, photography, ride horses, play golf, play video games, jog, play guitar, play piano, sing, hike, cave, paint, knit, crochet, and repair houses, just off the top of my head.

The most stable women have hobbies that don't involve their looks, social media, hanging out with friends, etc.

Gardening, Animals, Softball, Golf, Hiking, Outdoors, etc.

"What are your hobbies" That has to be one of the most redundant uninspiring questions this decade.
