"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 am close to 6'0 and in good physical shape at 185 lbs with little fat.

When I go out, I realize my height is a huge advantage.


I mean, my facial aesthetics probably lean more towards the average. There are alot of guys that are just as handsome facially, but I always have a couple to a few inches on most of these guys.

6'0 is definitely tall in NJ, the average here seems to be around 5'8-5'9".

I was out last night and was getting eyed up in decent amounts.

I even got stopped and hit on by a 22 year old hottie. (I am 22).

I am convinced if I was not above average in height, I would be alot more invisible.

However, the height advantage will only work if you are IN SHAPE!

A Tall fat ass, is still fat.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Being taller, in shape and good looking makes everything way easier. Especially for 1 night stands..

But that will just get you into the door, without confidence, challenge and self control, you will still end up getting punked in the long run.

I'm 6'2.

And you know something, that isn't that awesome in California. Most of the super attractive guys you see are over 6'6. Think "top 1% of all males" where I live. There is a club I used to frequent with lots of blonde hotties everywhere, but the catch is that you had to be at least 6' to get in. (well, not really. You could still get into the place, but at least 90% of everyone was taller than 6', so you would look awkward)

And even in that place, the guys who thought that they were super awesome suddenly became average. Height is only one piece of the puzzle and it guarantees nothing.

I'm a lil over 5"11 ...but I tell chics I'm 6 fooot ha:) I float around 170 with a 28 inch waist:) I want to get upto at least 190-200 though.

Same applies in bodybuilding. . Have two bodybuilders who are both thick as hell/aesthetic. The taller one will usually win in the end.
 

"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.

i think i would move. ha

i'm 6'3", in texas, in my experience, that's pretty far above average. it definitely helps in a couple ways. one girl i'm currently working on making into a plate loves to tell me how she tells her friends that i'm so tall. also, i just have a general feeling of "yea, i could kick all these guys asses" programmed into me because i'm tall and i work out. realistically, i cant fight at all. but for some reason it's deep seated in my brain that being taller sets me ahead of everyone else.

although the really super jacked guys probably feel that way too, regardless of if they're 5'0 or 7'0.

At 5'11" I'm feel right in the middle of the height spectrum among my friends. A lot of them have me by a few inches, but I'm also taller than the same amount by a few inches.

I try to make up for having average height by hitting the gym hard. Last 16 months I've been able to put on a hearty 20-25 pounds of muscle, and people have noticed. So I guess that's a plus.

Haha, I sort of feel the same way.

Definitely a huge advantage not only for attraction but also because it gives you more confidence. I'm 6'5" and I rarely see people taller than me, even when I go out here in NYC. Shorter men shouldn't worry about it though, just be the man. Worst thing a short guy can do is talk about his height. Most of us have a downfall, (Im going bald) we just need to try not to let those things get in our head.

Definitely understand the statement about fighting, but you gotta remember the saying "the bigger they are, the harder they fall." Usually being tall is enough of a deterrent that if you have half a brain you won't need to fight anyways.
 

"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.

I'm probably about 5'9 and let me say...I had never even considered that being "short" (which I'm not really) gave you a disadvantage in any way before I read people whining about it here. Seriously.

Those people here who say if you're not above 5'10 etc you're ****ed...are chatting absolute balls.

Height is not the disadvantage, the real disadvantage is their personality, but thats a tougher pill to swallow.

Another tall Texan here..6'3" barefoot. Seems like everyone wants to be tall, but in reality, it's a huge pain in the azz. IF I could do it over, it would be 6 foot even. But the women DO appreciate a tall guy and if you got some meat on you, it definitely keeps you out of trouble. Cuz with all those size-queens all over you, you gonna get some trouble! lol Word!

I'm 6'2.

In Georgia, that really doesn't mean anything. Most girls out here are after gay guys and money.
