"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.

Last weekend I was at a club, and a knot of four girls pushed up next to me. Laughing, talking, whatever. One of them, I don't want to call her overweight but she was definitely overweight for my taste (I like the waifs, and she was corn-fed with child-rearing hips, not my thing) was asked by an HB8.5, who was exactly my type: "So, no more Peyton, huh?"
"No," says Corn-Fed. "Looks like he found some b--ch who'll suck his d!ck. Better her than me."
"Ahem," I said, addressing Corn-Fed. "You don't suck d!ck?"
"Excuse me?" Corn-Fed turns on me. "What did you say?"
"I couldn't help but overhear. You said you don't suck d!ck?"
"No," she shook her head. "I don't. Gross."
"Hmm." I picked up my drink, said, "Excuse me," and then slid around her and stuck my hand out to HB 8.5. "So what's your name?"
HB 8.5 just stood there, her eyes and mouth wide open, trying to speak, and her friends nearly died laughing. Except Corn-Fed. "F---in' men," she said.
I turned to her. "That's what it's about, sweetheart," I told her, and articulated very cleanly, "F---ing men."
When the smoke cleared, I got HB 8.5's number and email. We're going out tomorrow night. Without Corn-Fed.

--------

Yeah, funny story. Thing is, I made a whole lot of right decisions in those few minutes. Here are some of them:

1.) I didn't use any profanity that Corn-Fed didn't already use.
1a.) I called B.S. on the offense she indicated in her opening engagement with me, and I did so by repeating exactly what she said.

2.) I opened the conversation with a relevant statement.

3.) I hadn't heard HB 8.5 use profanity, so I didn't use profanity with her. I implied, through my introduction, that I was curious whether or not she, in fact, sucked d!ck. And also I implied that she may not be good enough for me.

4.) C&F for the mf'n WIN. HB 8.5 told me in an email that her friends were riding her all night; that was the first time since they'd known her that she'd had nothing to say.

5.) Confident as all hell.

6.) Verbal judo. Turning a derogatory "F----n' men," into an imperative statement. This is about you, f----ng men. And adding the "g" to the end just to pound it home a little more.
6a.) Taking the aggressive, c-ckblocking b-tch of the group down a peg, and then sticking around to do it again if she came back with something.
6b.) No fear.

7.) I can use a common reference to fellatio in conversation Friday night. :D
 

"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.

Crash,
That was money. It's awesome when you have a night like that. As if the stars were just all lined up for you, and you couldn't Fail if you tried. Hats off to you Sir. Good post, good ideas, and even better implementation.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I think the key was your complete absense of fear. F&*kin awesome!
