"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.
Self Depreciation

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

A few thoughts:
Self depreciation manifested in verbal form is called SELF DEPRICATION.
And self deprication is actually a way of ignorantly NEG HITTING yourself.
And anyone who does this in the presence of a babe he's interested in, is in effect, guilty of committing relationship suicide.
Peace...one day.
I'm sure there are some women out there that would be partial to a man's self depreciation - perhaps the type that are after a broken wus. But for most self respecting women, I suspect it would equate to a huge turn off.
On the otherhand, how should men receive self-depreciating women? Is there more tolerance in this respect?
