"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.

I probably don't need to ask, but

...when hearing my lesbian neighbours go all out, is it socially acceptable to knock on the door and ask to join in on the fun?
 

"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.

Why dont you go knock on your lesbian neighbors door and find out? That would make a better post than asking the forums permission to do it. Id like to hear how this goes if you do knock and ask. It sounds a little creepy though.

I had a bad feeling, that's why I'm asking. Plus I live here. I'm leaning towards no, because nobody would want to be intruded upon during sex. Looks like I'll have to ask at some other time.
 

"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.

Option A (Requires balls): Go ask them and see what happens. Report back.
Option B (Requires ball): Go ask them what they would respond were someone to ask them. Report back.
Option C (Requires no balls): Do nothing.

No, it's not. They get asked that a million times. If they wanted a dude with them, they would not have any trouble getting one.
