"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.

If one has a decent job, comes from an upper class lineage, has good prospects, etc. is it fair to look down on other guys for not holding these things?
 

"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 don't think it's a case of being "fair", it's just whether you allow yourself to or not.

For me I don't feel like I should, even though like everyone I do sometimes. I prefer to try to see the good in people. If you are a confident person then you shouldn't need to look down on people to get kicks and that kind of negative ego build/maintaining is going to be more trouble then in worth.

The difference between confidence and arrogance is that arrogance is impossible to maintain.

I don't look down on anybody. I'm confident in who I am and only focus on my life, not the shortcomings of others or whatever.

I just live my life and treat everyone as my equal.
