"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.

my GF forwarded this to me and we have different points of views on this, so I figured i"d post it here.

the guy in the football gear is Ray Maleguna. He's a linebacker for the USC Trojans, and is about to be filthy rich next year, becuase he's a lock to be a top 10 pick in the NFL Draft. that doesn't protain to this post however.

The woman in the picture is erin andrews, a sideline reporter for ESPN college football games. Now.. Erin is an internet forum legend well..becuase she's smoking hot.

Now, I don't think if I were an attractive woman, I would be that offended by that. Would it be awkard? i'm sure. But I don't see how someone can look at this and think that he thinks any less of her business profession becuase of what he did. he just thinks she's hot. If anything i'd be flattered.

She really is, besides being hot, very, very good at her job. She takes it seriously and does a wonderful job.

For a woman, I'm sure she would rather take the negatives of being an attractive woman and have awakard moments like this happen from time to time, then well... not be attractive whatsoever and and have all the negatives that come along with that.


Do I thnk it's Taseful? Not at all. Would I have done it? no. But I dont' see how you should feel disrespected becuase a guy is attracted to you.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

well..that's what I thought.

I think some women (i.e my GF) don't get the difference between stupid and disrespetful.

I think it was inappropriate and he should be verbally warned about, but I wouldn't lose my wits about it either if I were her. A guy with class wouldn't do that, but at the same time, he was just goofing off.

Mystery was being interviewed by Conan O'Brien once and he said that guys don't know what it's like to have the opposite sex be physically imposing and threatening. The only time men might understand is if they're under the threat of being ass-raped in prison, and then you'd probably not find it funny if some guy twice your physical size walked up behind you in the prison and did what Maleguna did.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

put in contex, ray ray was not going to pull out his package, undress erin andrews infrot of 105,000 people and ass rape her.

stated, he is a dumbass, he is a lock for a top 10 pick and if that is any indication of his character (the same guy that wore pink underwere over his unifiom earlier this year ) i'm not touching this guy with a 10 foot pole with that type of investment.

Yea, it's a WHOLE different thing for women when it comes to this sort of thing.

I don't think she felt threatened, but you gotta understand that women are very jittery about the fact that they are the weaker sex.

When I was just out of HS one of my buddies and I thought it would be funny for him to hide in the back seat of one of our coworkers cars, and jump out as she left the parking lot.

We were pretty dumb back then, not realizing what kind of reaction she would have. Lets put it this way.....I wouldn't doubt if that incident scarred her for life, that's how freakin terrified she was.
