"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.

Been seeing this girl for a little while. Things are going pretty well, there's only one major problem.

She's a HUGE snob. And for me it's not a problem that she wants to go to art galleries and nice restaurants; I'm fond of those things myself. The trouble is that all of my friends and any place I like to go to that isn't super-chic is instantly labelled 'sketchy' and beneath her concern. That includes used-record stores, good inexpensive restaurants, most parts of town, and even public places like Harvard Square.

I'm literally amazed by some of the things that she says; like "You can't go to these places just because you want to; what will people say?" or "If most people say something is sketchy, i can't go near it".

Advice?
 

"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.

my advice is to go to the "sketchiest place" you can find in town, and **** her then and there...

Thanks; a crack house might be a bit much.
 

"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.

Click to expand...

Just convince a bunch of people to start declaring her favorite places are "sketchy" or at least someone she looks up to. Then she would either listen to her friends and never go anywhere, because someone said it was "sketchy" or she would eventually be forced to just try something out even if it was "sketchy".
Aside from that, I'm an artist myself, and I can assure you Art Galleries are "sketchy"...I mean, c'mon...that's what artists do! Hello!

take her on a surprise date to the ghetto, then leave her there
 

"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.
