"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.

Ignored by girls in a coffee shop

So I walked into this lounge coffee shop and went upstairs. In the middle of the space there was a small shallow water pool in which there was a table and chairs around it, which were occupied by 4 girls in bare feet seem to be having gr8 fun. One of them was good looking. I took a table got myself a tea. I've never approached a group of more than 2 members so I was calming my nerves.. Besides there were a couple of waiters standing around that water pool I mentioned. Then I got myself up, took a few strolls in the open terrace area , then walked towards the pool and stood there like I was curious about this water pool setup. Of course I eyed the girls. I waited for one of them to look at me (there was just a 2 feet distance between us) so that I could say something like "Is it fun to be sitting on the water like that?". A waited a few seconds, and I was completely ignored, noone looked at me. I felt like they were hostile towards me and moved away cursing myself for the wasted Rs.35 for the tea. Sometime later they came out of the pool and sat at a table in front of me but I didn't feel like talking to them, having been insulted. Wasted Rs.35 and half an hour.

Maybe they think it's rude to stare at people?


Also it could have been the way you approached. If you were nervous they probably would have picked up on it. Its best for you to make the first move by saying something to them. Sometimes people don't open up automatically and you have to make them feel comfortable around you before they open up.

I was initially pissed about approaching a group but soon cooled down so I don't think they picked on my nervousness.
It is difficult not to make one glance at a almost 6 foot tall guy standing close-by, and that says something, don't it?

Staring = OK only for like 3 secs, after which you should open your mouth.

They cannot read your mind you know. you gotta say something.

"You guys seem to be having a lot of fun! I would join you but I dont wanna wet my clothes swimming through the water lol"

^^ see you are already assuming that they love you.

Great smile = great reaction.

^^this works for guys as well. Have you ever seen a guy get beat up while he was smiling.. well there are exceptions, but you get my point right?

"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.
