"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.

So, today I was texted by a girl and how her friend is asking if i was spanish(i dont even know this girl, but she saw a pic of me in a friends phone). Note: This girl texted me using the cellphone of the girl who is asking if i was spanish. Anyways, she gave her phone back to the girl who was askin me if i was spanish or not. I said i wasnt, but it ended up about me asking her out somewhere(i dont even know this girl).

Later that night(which is right now), I texted the phone and realized that the friend(not the girl who asked me the question) is the one whos holding the phone. She asked me what I was planning to do with her. I said, "Lol youre a nosy girl arent ya? lol"

This statement got the response of, "Excuse me? shes my friend i care about her and she doesnt know you. i barely know you. thats why."

Then, I responed back with: "oops my apologies for forgettin that fact"

Then, her: "Yeah a pretty important fact dont you think so? Anyways i just wanted to tell you her best friend will kick ur ass if sth wrong happens to her."

Why the sudden change of mood? We were cool until this moment. Should I go forward with seeing the girl tomorrow? How should i respond? any insights on the situation?
 

"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.

if you'd told her sorry, you thought she was the other girl, everything would've been fine. she thought you were dissing her for caring

just be nice if you come across the friend again. and when you take out the girl you want, you now have a convo piece - tell her about the texting you and the miscommunication like it's a funny story. you'll defuse any preconceptions of you being untrustworthy

Eh, it's nothing. Her friend is just being protective. Say something reassuring yet c&f, like 'Don't worry she'll be safe. Unless it's a full moon, then I turn into a werewolf, but that's not for another couple of weeks. Seriously, I'll look after her good or you can kick my ass.'

The reason her friend is being overly protectice is likely because she sees her friend falling for a guy she's never met. I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts, the friend has the hots for you in a bad way.

Don't even bring up the friend when you meet her tomorrow, thats AFC, just have a great time. Make sure you get her cell number that way you can cut the friend out of the loop.

He has the cell number but the friend usually has the cell. XD

But yeah what I think is just go ahead with it. Go out on a date or two with the girl and then maybe at some point meet the friend. That way if you don't like the girl you may like the friend. But you'll need to get the friend in your corner at some point anyway.
 

"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.
