"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.

This is a problem I'm always facing with women I DJ. Somehow, women believe they are too fat, ugly, or any combination of absurd things to even consider the fact that you are hitting on them, even though they are gorgeous.


I always thought that I could take advantage of these types of people, maybe by getting them thinking you are the only one who finds them attractive (which isn't true), they would be more inclined to be seduced by me. But it doesn't really work out. They ignore anything you do.
I'll even say something totally absurd and AFC just for the fun of it, like "You are very pretty," and they'll shrug it off, saying they are ugly, and ignoring the fact that you practically just kissed their feet.


Do you have any ideas on ways to take advantage of women who are feeling this way?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

yeah... when they mention that they feel fat, ugly, etc... they are fishing for compliments.

and what you did is you took the bait and gave them just what they wanted.

plus you sound too polite if you're trying to get into any sexual relation with them.

---

either say nothing about their looks and continue a different topic (if you aren't dating or serious with each other)

or say "what are you talking about? you hot!" (which is better if you ARE dating).

or throw in a lame-funny canned line like (works for dating or not):
you- "...what? i thought you were in karate?"
her- "what? why?"
you- "because i think your sh-t is kickin'!"

Making a joke, or changing subjects seem like a fine idea. I just wondered if there was anyway to get a DHV out of the situation without saying the truth, and hurting their feelings, or saying they are hot, and being AFC.
 

"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.
