"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.

alright, so as of today, ive been dating this girl hannah for three months. our relationship started on the heels of a failing relationship for her, and like a year long dry spell for me. she dropped into my life like a bombshell, exactly my vision of what i thought a great girl would be. so i was reallllllllllly nice, doing this and that for her, and over time it really got to be too much. saying sorry too much, basically looking pathetic and willing to jump through hoops for her. i confessed my deep feelings too early, ****ed too early, etc. so right now, she probably isnt finding me exceedingly attractive. the articles on this website have helped tons, and im ready to start being the attractive, sexy man i want from myself. the thing is, ive already done all of this **** over the course of about 2 months, and i want to change what she thinks of me to keep this train a'rollin. i really want to keep this relationship, i know that there is potential for both of us to be really happy, and she isnt a replaceable girl. do you think its too late? have i already botched up her feelings for me, or can i change my game before its too late? please help.

"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.

So are you worried that she might break up with you? Cause if your still going out with her like you said, then maybe it isn't too late to gain back your manhood and take control of the relationship. Stop worrying so much about what you did in the past, learn from your mistakes and move forward.

yeah, i'm still with her. one dilemma im in is...

now that ive put a little to much nice guy in my mix, should i just ween off the niceness, or straight cut it off? and go all insta-******* on her! :kick:

she is my first real real girlfriend that i give a damn about and not just dating because i have (had? :D) low self esteem.

If you go all out and change you way of doing things you may either freak her out, or change her attitude towards you. Just stop doing what you said you were doing before and you should be fine. If she feels threatened by the new you then it's time to move on.

Yeah I know how it feels like to have low self esteem, and to have a girl that you really care about, just keep on remembering there are MILLIONS of them out there, waiting for a guy like you to step into their lives.
