"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.

Okay here's what happened...
1. I added some girl on facebook that used to go to my high school...
2. She adds me and doesn't even know who I am really/doesn't remember me
3. I tell her
4. She asks me if i want to take her to grad/prom
5. I say sure as long as she doesn't embarrass me
6. Next day she confirms that im not going to ditch her
7. I say I'm not going to...
Then me and my friends get into a conversation about who we're going with. I tell them I'm going with that girl, word spreads.
Word gets back to me that noone likes her and that she's only using me to get into my highschool's grad/prom.

I promised her I would go with her... but on the other hand she manipulated me and everyone that's cool/of importance in my school HATE her which would damage my social proof kind of. Ask if you need more details.
 

"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.

Well, if she embarrasses you, that's your escape clause.

honestly it sounds like if you bring her there is going to be ALOT of drama

she manipulated me
how?
do you know why she want to go to prom at your school/ with you?

Everything you said, leads to one conclusion; don't bring her to prom.

but then the question becomes what do you want?
-to take her because you like her

If I were you I would find out why she wants to go to prom at your school (does she want to come to start sh!t, is she coming because she likes you?).

how good lookin is she? Some people hate on better lookin people, its just the way of the world. Also find out if shes sexually liberated so if you do take her at least youll get some booty. Its important that shes hot AND skanky, if not then i say dont take her.

Apparently she just wanted to use me to get into the grad dinner/dance.

I don't really 'like' her because i don't really know her...she's probably about a 6.5-7

Just tell her the truth...that for some reason that you don't know, all of your friends don't like her and are mad at you for inviting her and you don't think it's a good idea for you to take her because people probably wouldn't treat her well and it'd be a big drama. Tell her that you'll still go out with her another time and another place, but that you really don't want your night ruined over drama.

I really don't understand the root cause of it, tho. I suspect feminism. ("I don't need a man. I need to take charge of my life, study hard, and pursue a career" and all that.)
wow, that was amazing :cheer:
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
