"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.

Neil Strauss's THE GAME and RULES OF THE GAME

"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.

Nay, most of his books are built around an inferior set of routines and materials that is based on nothing. Read the DJ Bible and work on yourself. If you lack friends and are considered socially awkward(not saying that you are), it's better to work on those feats instead of learning yourself a bunch of routines that will eventually come back and bite you in the ass.

DJ Bible and the Book of Pook are all you need. And practice, a lot of practice.

Absolutely yes..

Great reads. His writing is impeccible. Everything from the word choice to the way the stories are laid out are incredible.

The game is a story - Rules of the Game is a handbook/guide. I would suggest the former over the latter; Rules of the Game is more for people that are really slow/dumb with women and need serious advice on how to get things rolling. But The Game is a must-read.... It walks you through Neil's life and his journey to becoming a man basically.

Agree about the DJ Bible. But I've found that books that give me examples, which I can then personalize, are just as helpful.

The DJ Bible is like the Macro version, these are the overarching concepts, the routines type stuff is the micro, what to do in specific situations, and it gives a guy that isn't terribly creative a little bit of a base to work off of, and by extension a little bit of extra confidence.

I'm not a fan of following routines, but everyone needs some go to stuff in case they are stuck.

Just my personal experience, though.

"The Game" is an excellent read. Definitely yay.

"Rules" was alright. It's no different than the DJ Bootcamps on the forum here, and the forum is free...

"The Game" is hilarious to read through. Don't know much about "The Rules" but if its like the brief on Amazon I'd say use the DJ Bible here for free and read anything by Senior Fingers.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
