"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.

Last week, me and a friend go up to this local bar. A few more people I know show up, and my friend ends up leaving with them go hit up somewhere else. I didn't feel like going, so I stayed back. It starts getting crazy at the bar, and a bunch of HB's are rolling in. I make eye contact with this blonde chick, and I tap her on the shoulder to get her to come over. She comes over, and I just start gaming her. I just start to build some rapport, and I throw in some kino. Anyways, I take her over to the dance floor, and we start dancing. Next thing I know I'm making out with her. The night ends with me just number closing, and I head home. I should of tried to take her home, but hindsight is 20/20.

Fast forward to Sunday afternoon. Me and the same friend go to the same bar to watch some football. I get there and notice the same HB from before is there. Keep in mind my friend is aware I've been talking to this chick. I go up and say hi, but I came to hangout with my friend. I didn't really want to deal with chicks. I just wanted to relax and watch some football. Next thing I know, my friend is sitting next to the HB at the bar talking her up. I confronted him about it, and I eventually just left. Then, I find out he takes her home. I was pretty pissed, and it wasn't just about the girl. It's about violating the "bro's before hoes" code, so I'm taking out this girl that I tried to hook him up with. Hopefully he realizes how I feel.

What do you guys think?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

1.) So you would like to do more with this chick (i.e. asking her out or w/e)?
2.) Did your friend know this? (I presume he did)
3.) Did you inadvertently give him the green light, perhaps when you said you didn't care about the situation b/c of football, or did you tell him that you were going to try and move things along with this girl?

From the way your post is written though, your friend did so something pretty d!ck-ish. I know my friends wouldn't try to pull this sort of stunt on me. He did ignore the bros before hoes code, so you're right about that. As for the girl...maybe she's just slvtty if she knows this guy is your friend and she went home with him after making out with you just days before.

How is your friend aware you've been talking to her? If you told him, major major mistake.

I go up and say hi, but I came to hangout with my friend. I didn't really want to deal with chicks. I just wanted to relax and watch some football.

Doesn't sound like he did anything wrong. She wasn't your girlfriend, he wanted some action, was probably told by you she way "easy", so he went it to get some.

Why would you go up to her and tell her not to come talk to you? That doesn't make much sense.

DJ11...I do agree with your last line. If paintballguy is interested in this girl...they coincidentally run into each other...and he does NOTHING (or tries to do nothing)...then he can only blame himself for another guy getting the girl. He had the opportunity, he just didn't seize it. PBG, would you have considered asking her to watch part of the game with you guys? That way, she'd still be "yours."

As for the friend being aware part, I'm guessing your reasoning is that because PBG mentioned the girl to him, he now notices an attractive girl he may not have really noticed before? Based on how this guy went about his business (the friend), maybe he said some negative things about PBG too. Which brings me to my last point...

...the friend is still a d!ck. Yes, I'm aware that PBG is on the prowl and this girl isn't his, but close friends respect one another. Again, I can't see any of my close friends pursuing a girl I might like, since it's bros before hoes. Obviously, this guy doesn't respect you too much PBG.

i was pretty much done with this girl, so i wasn't like pissed she was talking to someone else. The thing that pisses me off is I found out he was talking to her on facebook while I was still talking to her. That and the fact I don't do that kind of **** to my friends. If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't even know her name. That is wrong to bite off a guy's leads behind his back.
 

"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.

Well my friends have pulled sh!t like this on me before...typical behavior of someone who doesn't do well with cold approaching. You got his foot in the door for him and made the situation easier for him to handle. Just like to point out that a girl making out with you at a club doesn't mean she's into you. She was probably drunk and "in the moment." Had you gone out with her at all after that or no? Cause if that was your only contact you probably had dropped the ball and all your friend did was pick it up and run with it. I think bro's before ho's is meant for more serious matters, not having sex with a girl your friend blew his chances with. It's not like she was your girlfriend or even a girl you had been dating for a few months. Nothing wrong with a little healthy competition. If I were in your shoes and cared, like you obviously did, I would have gone over and sat with them when they were talking and taken control of the frame. Just my two cents.

I think this is clearly wrong and this guy is inherently a douche bag! Come on he tells him about a girl he's gaming and he tries to work his way in right away????

I'd next her and next him!
