I had to ask the barista what song it was a few years ago and this one seems to be popular. What about you guys, anyone have a similar experience?
"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.
Songs you keep hearing over and over at Coffee shops and cafes

"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.

Still here stuck in South East Asia, I wish I can board a flight and head out to San Antonio and hear a local blues band jam out to a Few Stones and Bad Company covers at a cafe or something

This was supposed to be a romantic mecca too.

it can be.
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

It's great, I've met a lot of great people here. I'm a retired Disabled Air Force Veteran currently taking care of my parents, they have a lot of health problems. We take care of each other and at times there a great source of support, Im just here waiting on my Dad whose a retired architect/engineer to finish off one of his building projects that he's been given as a favor, my parents own their own Hotel out here and I'm thankful to have that because thats my main source of social life out here. That and my regular dates on Tinder and meet ups.

I keep hearing this one, that's because I play it full blast whenever I see a hot babe and sit down next to her and act like I'm looking at something behind her while wearing a top hat, shades and a raincoat. Even if it's in the middle of summer.
