"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.

"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.

The city that sleeps. Sometimes.
It all depends on how you present yourself.


you can always improve a few points by wearing the right clothes, projecting the right image, etc..

i got like a 9.4 on there a couple of years back. Of course that required a good picture, leather pants, a tight shirt, etc ;)

Attraction is genetic dont worry about it, haven't you ever had arguments over what you or some of your friends consider beautifful? Everyone finds different things attractive. There are some "globals" but there is lots of variety also.
 

"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.

that's stupid, i have people voting 9 and 10's and 1's, lots of 8's, but the majority are 1's which i think is completely stupid.55 people voted but i will let it stay for some more days or weeks and see for myself, and i definitely dont consider myself as a 1 in a 0-10 scale, a 7 maybe.

I have performed an experiment with hotornot.com by posting different pictures of me. On some of them i had more than 9, others i had between 8 and 9, and some i ended up between 7 and 8.

I noticed that people are very influenced by the amount of skin you show. My shirtless pictures scored really high (i was at 9.9 at some point, lol), while my other pics seemed to score lower.

I noticed the same for girls. Even if a girl has an ugly face, she will have 9+ if she shows some skin or is in a sexy pose.

And yea, i always get a fair amount of 1's too, so dont worry. Hotornot has a system to curve the grades that people give. For example, if someone only gives grades between 1 and 5 to people, his grades will have a real value higher than 5. Maybe his 5's will be worth more like a 10, so...yeah!
