"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.

Yeah, I know this is AFC and all but how should I respond when women give me compliments? For instance, in marching band, I'm the only guy in my sqaud and the sqaud next to me, every else in the sqaud is girl. Sometimes these girls compliment me on my ability to memorize music and marching steps in a short time. I didn't know what to say, at the moment I thought "Should I act ****y about it? Should I just say I know?" and in the end I just ended up trying to explain how memorize. I don't see why girls think memorizing music is so "amazing", as they call it, since it's actually not that hard for me, since I have alot of music experience and a photographic memory. But that's besides the point, how should I respond when girls give me compliments?
 

"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.

Listen to these guys, they hit it right on the head, be ****y about it, when you get a compliment from chicks, say something smart assed, it works, but I dont reccomend dating girls in band, because you will be around her alot, and if you happen to break up, it will be very akward, belive me I know from personal expirence

Not to be mean but I think "thanks" would be best for Viper's situation...(some of you haven't read all his posts)
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Working a compliment implies your insecurity. Just say "thanks" do nothing about a compliment.
