"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.

Im 24 and I got a lot of nice sh!t. I am somewhat spoiled and materialistic but i grew up on MTV so i guess i got brainwashed. my parents help me out here and there but i pay for most of my sh!t. I bought a nice car got some nice earrings and a nice diamond watch. i broke up with my ex and felt the need to feel that empty space hahahahaha. anyways girls who ride in my car and see my watch or earrings say compliments and sh!t i just say yea its pretty cool. sometimes they ask if its real and i say i wish. any other way to handle when they compliment.
 

"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.

If someone compliments you the worst thing you can do is make a joke about it. Take their compliemnt on board and simply say 'thanks'.

Do NOT make a joke of compliments and do NOT brush them off - it's insulting to the person who made the compliment.
