"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.

Drug & Alcohol abuse both tend to have consistent behavioral patterns that show up or "lack of showing up".

A few i've known from both my own use of alcohol and drugs as well as partners are:

- Lack of empathy or understanding for other peoples situations
- Flakyness
- Lying (such as telling you they will call you back and then not calling, telling you they'll be somewhere and not being there, etc)
- Fear (fear of being caught, found out, told what to do ie. authority)
- Inability to meet time commitments
- Random dissapearances sometimes days or weeks a time
- Denial
- Blaming others for all problems in life
- Frequent bathroom use or trips to the store or going to "such and such" a friends house during odd hours
- Problems with sleeping on a regular schedule
- Runny noses much too often
- Black / Red boogers from runny noses

These are just a few patters/signs that will usually repeat themselves over and over again.
 

"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.
