"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.

My ex and I are trying to work things out, starting over with a "clean slate"... I went over to her house Saturday night and she seemed so happy to see me... she told me to "get back in the car" and we had sex for 3 hours until someone turned on a light inside the house and she got spooked. She talked dirtier then ever before and I was like "ok this just might work".

Well, I texter her yesterday with "Hey good seeing ya last night, hope your dad didn't see us. Have fun clubbing with your friends." No reply, nothing. And she always replies and/or calls me after she goes clubbing. After a night like that I figured she'd be all about talking.. but it appears like she is playing yet another game with me. Which one? I'm not sure.


What should I do guys? Wait for a response? Call her up?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Why shouldn't I trust it? She's on her damn sidekick all the time texting/IMing and she doesn't even get back to me. What the fvck? I mean how hard is it to send a text reply?

Should I just act as if it's no big deal and don't even bring it up?

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

She goes out clubbing without you? That's a big red flag right there. I wonder why she goes out clubbing? Hmmm......can't put my finger on it. What do chicks go in search of inside a club? Hmmm *end sarcasm*

well she works with a club promoter and goes clubbing 3x a week. Sunday Mon and Wed. She only has guy friends really... and no ive known her for 9 months and I've been invited to club with her maybe twice. Is that a bad thing? I always tell her to go have fun with her friends... maybe I should say something to her? I don't want to look insecure though but it has bothered me.

Im writing her a text in regards to clubbing with out me... DOES THIS SOUND GOOD OR AM I SOUNDING TOO INSECURE?

"I know you like going to clubs and that I'm not invited because you want to spend time with your friends. I can understand that and I'm not trying to smother your personal life but it would be nice if we could spend a little more quality time together. I go out most of the nights you do as well and I'm doing the exact same thing you are. But, if we really like each other and want this to work we need to sacrifice some of our nightlife and spend a little more time together. Is this something that you're willing to do? I'll leave Sundays open for us if you'll do the same."

just leave it, talk to her next time about anything BUT clubbing.

Work your way around it and you will get to the truth. Everyone is right, you are OVERTHINKING. calm down, work it out.

That's giving her a one-way pass to get random dyck and still see you.

Ask yourself, am i losing my self-respect by writing this e-mail?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

PERHAPS. But what should I say then? We're not together, just dating. But I believe she thinks I'm just sitting here while she goes out to clubs with guys. I have to trust her somewhat that she isn't a filthy ***** but I need to get a message across... what about something like this...

"I just want you to know that I don't care if your seeing anyone else at this point. In fact, I think it would be a good idea for us to see what else is out there. That way, if we ever decide to be exclusive we'll know it was the right decision."


I've been real needy in the past, acting insecure and all. We took a month off and I've been confident ever since... even dating another girl along the way.

*** YES I THINK THAT SOUNDS BETTER... 1) SHE'LL THINK THAT I'M WITH OTHER GIRLS 2) IT SHOWS CONFIDENCE. 3) IT WILL GET HER THINKING THAT SHE NEEDS TO STOP ****ING AROUND OR SHE'LL LOSE ME.

jeez man, you're trying too hard. you need to talk it out with her. Does she like you? How sure are you that she's seeing other guys? If she really is seeing other guys then just get over her...

If you really want to sort it out, talk to her.

I don't know if she is but when she goes clubbing 3x a week and I'm not invited that's telling me something. In the past her Interest Level has always gone up when I have made a comment that insinuates that I'm seeing/looking elsewhere.

Dude, you come here for advice--you get it, and you ignore it.

Do whatever you want...but if you send those messages it's the wrong move.

Were you looking for advice? Or someone to agree with you?

Why are you getting all heavy about this out of left-field.

Let her reply to you, hang out more and more if that's what you want.

If you had other girls this wouldn't be an issue. Who cares what she 'thinks' about what you do while she clubs. Chances are she doesn't think about you at all.

Have had a girl that was just a friend and she couldn't shut up about a guy, or always went out of her way to find a way to see him or be with him?
Maybe you have a sister like that or a cousin.....anyway, the point is they show interest. And a girl that likes you will be the same way.

Ask yourself: Are her actions the actions of a girl that is interested in me?

This isn't a negotiation. This isn't an ultimatum. Either she has an attraction for you or not--texting her like that doesn't do a thing. Ooops, I'm wrong, it totally kills any attraction.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
