"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've cut one out, should cut the rest out too?

I've had previous threads on this too

I've cut the cousin out who harrased, bullied, emotional, verbal abuse

He did do threatening behaviour, other family members too

He/they belittled, put me down, disrespect

Ostracised deliberately

Don't wish to get to know me

Manipulate, gaslight, undermine

Patronise a lot

Of course I'm never there and keeping my distance and answering to no one

I guess they wish to keep my below, control and have no respect. They don't wish to listen

Should I cut all of them out? I'm travelling a lot soon
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

I would cut out anyone from my life who regularly doesn't treat me with the respect I deserve, I make no exceptions. I've told my own mother to fvck off without thinking twice, the fact that she's my mother is not a legitimate excuse for anything.

You're better off without a family if your entire family happens to be toxic snakes, your mental health is always worth more.
