"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.

What would you label the main character who is played by Ryan Philippe?

I mean like, what status of a male would you give him? He certainly leads in all his relatioships.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

A seduction artist....read the book that the movie is based off of. A lot of familier similarities. The main character in the book is named "Valmont." I forget the name of the book but im sure you could google it or something. "Happy hunting" :)

Les Liasions Dangereuses by Choderlos Laclos (sp) (I have the book on my shelf but I am not going to look for it)

It's the story of Vicomte Valmont and Marquis de Merteuil... two rich people (early adulthood) with nothing better to do so they essentially decide to destroy random people's lives... it's a good book.

Takes place in seventeenth century France (if I'm not mistaken)

You are correct. Nobles didn't have much to do back in the day so seduction was the prime activity. Very good book. Very good movie.

Which is basically why there were a lot of things going on back then. Practice makes perfect.

Antichrist - Very good book. Can't undertand half of it at times though...

Blazer - He is a seductionist.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
