"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.

Ok. So a girl I was dating disappeared to date another guy. This guy, in turn, left her and asked another girl out. She came back to me but I don't think she knows, that I know, about the whole situation.

Should I tell her that I know about what happened? I've been acting as if I don't since I found out but should I say something?

Never take them back. You've already shown her that your willing to stand by while she goes off with some other dude.

You are not a consolation prize to be had as an afterthought.

Move on.
 

"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.
