"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.

So I take the idea of not giving a girl my number a bit too straightfoward!

So today I got a number, and when she gave me it she asked me to call her so she could have mine...

So what do I do? I say something along the lines of "Nah, I'll call you when I want.".

I don't remember where I got this idea, but I don't really like it, especially if I punched in her number wrong... plus it makes me come off as an *******. Which I already kind of are.

So should I continue this policy or should I stop?

Or am I over analyzing :D
 

"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.

I think you took it too literally. I'm pretty sure it means don't take her counter offer where you say "give me your number" and she asks for yours instead. If you have hers, and she wants yours, why not go ahead?
