"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.

Well my long term relationship of 1 year and 3 months, is running VERY slow. We dont even get to spend time together (Her parents hate me and dont even have a clue we are still together, therefore she can never go out and see me and especially over the holidays because they are in california). Anyways, things just feel really slow and sluggish in our relationship. It isnt exciting anymore. WE talk on the phone and dont really have nothing to talk about at all... The only thing that pops to my mins is "i miss you, what did u do today".. and thats about it..

So anyone give me any ideas on what to do when ur relationship is coming to an hault, to pick things up again and spice things up?? thanks for helpin.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Danny boy - you started another thread about this girl - leave this girl alone - it's over - she has moved on - read the posts from your other thread!

Well, I broke up with her yesterday, I told her it wasa over blah blah blah, And she started to cry really hard and told me shed love me forever, and i told her i was sorry and we could still be friends, and then she said so you are serious this time? and i said Yes, and i hung up. Then she called me back and said it was my last chance, and i was like hmmm, a simple yes or no could take away some ***** for the next few years or so.. so seeing as i had no other plates spinning, im like ok baby but only if u marry me. She said she would. (I love her). But she was having confusion about marriage about 2 weeks ago, i made it a big deal.. but w/e. Anyways yeh.......... So we are back together....... and things feel slow......... Im stuck.. I need you guys to help me out on my mission to make this girl turn AFC on me. I wanna go all or nothing!!


P.s, Guys im not as crazy about her as i use to be... so The AFCness is slowly... fading away.. which i think might be another problem because if im not as attached to her as i use to be, aka, writing her messages all the time, leaving her voice mails, writing her huge emails all the time about my day... all that crap... Maybe its my fault things are slowing down? But then should i go back to doing all that again? Im too lazy... and... i dont think it should be up to me to keep the relationship goin steady..... so anyone got any ideas?

See a counselor..

This board is great for giving a different point of view. But when someone has many issues, or a relationship he just can't let go of, he needs one on one attention. This isn't a great format to walk you through all you need to do.

If her parents don't like you, then that's a problem you need to work out in the relationship. Counselor would help. If things are just boring, you need to discover your own passions, share that. If she cannot share in passions with you, then she may not be your type. But, it's too early to tell. See a counselor.

As a rule of thumb, if you post once or twice here, and don't get what you need, posting again probably won't do good. Insane = doing the same things, but expecting different results.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
