"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.

omg!! oprah is americas new moral/spiritual compass...wtf!!!

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Moral compass huh? Gotta wonder about the media's influence over people (this includes CNN and USA Today).

Anything to cause an uproar... :rolleyes:

Since morallity is a point of opinion, the whole article is flawed.;)
 

"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.

I balme Fox news. And ABC and MSNBC and NBC and CNN and.... you know. The REST.

Face it. The media is everywhere. And a piece of crap like Oprah can be so hyped up that she seems like a spiritual leader.

But you've got to ask yourself this: Who do you think would do a better job than her?

No person should be a spiritual leader; not your priest, not Mother Theresa, not the Pope, and sure as hell not Oprah. Everyone should form their beliefs independantly - people shouldn't base their beliefs on the words and actions of any one person as to what's moral and immoral. They should form their opinions from many factors with critical analysis and open mindedness.

A monkey with an organ grinder.


This is a new low, another kick in the nuts for Western men. You all (myself included) should be ashamed of yourselves for letting it get to this state of an utter joke.

HAHA! America is getting to be one fvcked up place!

You have Arnie (aka the Terminator) as a governor, an illiterate and mildly retarded president, and now you have Operah as your spiritual compass!! :crackup:

Whatever next?

Agree 100%

I don't know who's stupider Oprah or the people who are influenced by Oprah.

Oh yeah I forgot, their women, give them a coupon or sale and they run for the hills, I can't believe how easy it is to influence and manipulate people. Oprah is doing it right in front of our eyes.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Oh yeah, Oprah is definitely a smart woman. Her knowledge of people and what drives them is extremely apparent. The problem is the morons that don't get it who think that she should be considered to be something so outrageous. It's strange to see perception of desperate people.
