"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.

Man I think I got a bad sounding voice and I want to kno what can I do to make me speak better(If anything). I'm thinking about taking a chorus class next year to help me out(I'm in high school). It could be just a high school teenage boy puberty thing tho.

Here is my voice, I just said a random monologue I found on the internet, I ain't put no effort into it I justed wanted yall to here how my true voice is.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I don't know. Everyone thinks they have a weird voice. Yours doesn't seem too especially gay or anything. Then again, I only heard you say two words.

sexual state, is when you are thinking bout last time you had sex, this will cause your voice to go into a lower voice tone, just speak a little lower and a little sexier,
 

"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.

Deal with it . . . I think my voice is a little odd, but people always know it's me. I called this girl I don't really know too well the other day and said "Hey, it's _____" and she knew exactly who I was. I asked how and she said it was my voice and that it was different. Different can be good, my friends . . .

I'd work on your expression, more than anything else...
 

"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.

lol funny. i don't think it's all that weird of a voice. i think i have a strange voice and a weird accent somehow too. i'm from wisconsin and this girl i work with asked me if i was from boston. plus i think i have a scottish or irish type of accent going on when i use an s word i say sh. so when i'm talking about seeing the sea it sounds like sheeing the shee.

well, there's not much you can do about it either way, so who cares? i dont get much bs about it.
