"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.

I've been doing the whole online dating thing for the last couple of months, and I had been messaging this one girl back and forth a bit, well, I asked if she wanted to get drinks, it went like this...

Me : Anyways, would you be down to get a drink or something one of these days?

Her: Sure I come back on the 8th

Me: sounds good! I'll message you next week.

Her: K or whenever

Anyways, Like I stated on there, I messaged her the following week.

Me: how does Wednesday sound?

Her: Can't have court


Now perhaps it could just be for a driving ticket, but if she couldn't go out in the evening because of it, and I've never been to traffic court later than 1PM.

I don't know if it's for something more serious than just a driving ticket, and that I should really be concerned about.

Should I not worry and try for another date, should I ask her what her court date is for, or should I just say forget it and next her?

Thoughts?
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

A woman with a court appearance? That would be enough to put me off. :D

I had a very similar thing with a woman from match.

I asked her 3 times and each time she was juggling kids and work but no counter offer. She texted 3 days later to ask (only) how things are going...

I had already nexted her.

No counter offer = next!
 

"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.
