"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.

ALl the girls here use AIM (aol Instant Messanger) over giving out #s. Its annoying, but yesterday I closed two HB 9.0s and they gave me their names, emails (uhh NO), and s/ns. Email is lame, I use it very sparingly, like Michael Philippe said in Cruel Intentions, email is for geeks and pedofiles. So I IMed one of them today, fluffed but its much harder to arrange a date. She must have gone away and come back like 6 times. Im sure I have the right interest levels from both of them, but on AIM everyone is distracted so nothing ever works out

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Ask her to provide you a number so you can call her. It takes time to receive response from girls via email. I will simply ask for her number and if she is interested in you, she will give the number else, she has not interest in meeting you.

You guys are making this way more difficult than it really is.

Alright. What do you suggest he should do in this case, Francisco.

^ yah just realised that.

Will do for the next HB 9.0 #2

New topic question: should I try again with the HB 9.0 that I just talked to
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
