"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.

I am spinning am still friends with exwife and spinning 2 plates (gf) right now.
One plate I met 5 weeks ago and have slept with twice. We have mainly gone dancing, dinner and alot of making out.

She is a highly educated career woman very sweet and bought me a small gift (hi quality scented candle) wrapped with red ribbon. We did not see each other over Christmas as she had a convention so I thought no gifts.

The question is should I have gotten her a small token gift as well and if so is it too late to get something for her.


The other plate is just new and I got all my gifts for the ex who I spent xmas with.


ps
Spinning plates is hard to do when they go to the same dance.
 

"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.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
If "plates" is all they are, then don't sweat giving gifts. In those kinds of situations, you should give gifts if you WANT to, not because you feel you HAVE to.

At this point, I'd say F it.

She should have thrown the candle and hit you in the head with it.

The scented candle is not for you. It's for you and her. It's like when a husband gifts a wife with a 52" flat screen TV. The candle is not REALLY for you to use alone. It's for you to use when she is there.

The gift is a big hint that she wants to be THERE...with you...and her candle.

As far as giving her a gift in return don't bother unless you are going to give her a Victoria Secret gift card.

Thanks Guys

good advise. No need to buy her a gift anyway I always pay when we go out - she occasionallys buys me some treats so fair enough



Going to a ig NYE party with all my plates at the same place. Wish me luck!
