"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.

Ok, I've been browsing around, and I've found this one dude, who I happen to like his style. But I need an opinion on it. Does this guy look gay to you?

This guy is Conor Oberst from Bright Eyes. Which while alot of his music is a bit pvssy like, some of it is hella good imo (listen to Easy/Lucky/Free). Currently I have way longer hair than him (not like really long, but about 4 inches longer than his hair). And I'm thinking about cutting it down to look something like that.

Opinions appreciated.
 

"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.

Looks good. I'd say go for it. If you have a huge forehead like him, make sure you don't pin it off to the side like in the second pic or your eyes will bulge.

And if you're worried about looking gay, don't cop his style. It's very cutting-edge, which is good, but this makes people wonder.

I'm not keen on the hairstyle, but the clothing is a good style. Bit bland if you ask me though :p

I wouldn't say he looks gay, but in my personal opinion he looks like a wimp, a geek and a bum. I know that style does attract certain women (namely emo/rock types) but from listening to my female friends, it's not conventionally attractive.

I agree with Tavii that it doesn't reflect masculinity, and therefore is probably going to repulse more feminine type of women. I doubt you would attract many classy women with this look either.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

He's very skinny, that's about all that's making him look like a flamer. That and the hair. :D

He looks pretty emo. His sleeves are probably blood stained from his p*ssy cuts he makes on his arm to draw pity.

FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG. instead of worrying this much about trying to find the perfect style, why dont you spend some time around and see what you like and what you feel comfortable in?

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Don't let warboss alex see this thread, the guy in those pics looks steak-deprived.

As for the style, the guy doesn't look any diff from all those teenagers on the street who ask you for change, grab some respectable clothes man.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
