"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 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.

Well, Im not really familiar with Australia, so how far is the trip from where she is to you?? If I read that correctly, she is going to be in Australia for 1/2 year, correct??

Well depending on the distance of the trip, I would say go for it. But in all honesty, I wouldnt let it get to your head. In a perfect movie love story, it would be the most incredible 1/2 a year for both of you and you would fall crazy in love and she would move down there and be with you forever, or vice versa. But in reality, thats not likely to happen. So I would enjoy her, do whatever and have no regrets.

Think of her this way, its just gonna be a 1/2 fling. Kind of like a summer fling, but extended.

Little criticism: I dont know if you spilled your guts to her, but you made a DJ mistake by jumping to far ahead with your feelings. That was a mistake. But Ill cut you some slack, you're human it happens (God knows I've done it before). But try and look past that for now. Instead, focus on enjoying the time with the 3 other dates you said you got.

Have fun, dont take it too serious. If shes really into you, she will bring up the conversation.

Aussie,

Don't sweat it, hors don't need to be pursued, rather they just need to be found! Send a postcard for her to keep you in her memories and put your phone number in there and tell her to call you when she is in the vicinity!!
