"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.

Ok, I'm back. Something like a two year hiatus.

I used to browse these forums back in my highschool days. AFC's and noobs, listen and take the advice given here. The stuff actually works. I was an AFC during most my highschool career but made a turn around...

Here's my deal and I'm asking for a little advice. My girl and I have been dating for the past 2 years roughly. Things started to get... Boring and routine for both of us. 3 out of the 5 times we went out, we just hung out. The other 2 were great... We're both in college by the way... Anyhow, a few days ago I brought up the subject of us just not having too much fun anymore and we both agreed we should take a break. Eh, it sucks but whatever. From what she said she still wants to get back together with me (ok, cool) and wants to maintain the dating status. We broke up during the evening and hung out for the rest of the night. Which, I actually had a lot of fun because I got to "go after" her again. She kissed me, changed in front of me, yada yada yada.

I think this is good because it actually is forcing me to go back on the "chase" again with her and other girls. Hey, I'm technically single so why not? She went out of the country with her family the day after we broke it off. She, obviously was sad at the time. During the time she's been on vacation she has called me long distance/text messaged me quite a few times. I've only answered 2 of her phone calls and haven't replied back to the text messages. She's the one who technically wanted the break.

So... How should I go about this? I obviously still like her and will probably still want a relationship with her. I don't want to come off AFCish in the least bit. Aka, write her letters, flowers, take her to expensive dinners, ect. ect. Begging her to come back. I know that stuff never works.

I guess just play it cool for a little while? Also... Today would be our xx aniversary. 20 something months. I didn't pick up her phone calls yesterday/last night. Should I call her today and wish her happy aniversary? She did mention that we would still celebrate it, wont start over when "we get back together" ect. ect.

Also, last note. I am my girl's first in everything (except kissing). She's a good girl who has high morals, head screwed on straight ect. ect. I am not worried about her screwing every guy she meets while we're on a break.

So my fellow DJ's whatcha think? :up:
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I experienced something similar with my last gf, like almost exactly. If you're wanting to eventually get back with her I advise you to not play it too cool. That's how I fu**ed up. Make sure to stay in contact and to display your value, and start sarging so you have a backup plan if things go FUBAR.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
