"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.

Anyways, for all you people who are trying to find a confidence pill, I have tried something close. I'm not saying do it or anything but wtf i'm not your mother.

When I had my teeth pulled the doctor gave me a prescription for 30 pills of vicodin and I am usually afraid of taking pharms because i think man made **** is bad for you. Anyways I was feeling depressed lately because nothing has been going good for me so I said to my self "sobriety sucks". I took 2 pills after lunch today and I felt great like I could take on the world. I talked back to teachers I didn't like and just felt like i wasn't trying to impress anyone. It was like i was being myself for once. I wish i could have this feeling all of the time but unfortunately it's addicting and i don't want to have to be all cracked out when I run out. Anyways that's how you get a pair of 4 hour balls.
 

"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.

Is this suppose to be advice? I hope to god not. Condoning taking drugs for a confidence is something you probably shouldnt do. Anyway, why not just put in the real work to become your ideal self.

Sure haven't we all popped a couple too many allergy pills, or a few too many cold syrup shots ... its all part of growing up. Matter of fact when my future kid turns the pivotal age of 13, him and I are going to take a trip to the drug store and I'm going to purchase him his first bottle of Benadryl and make him drink it all in 5 minutes. If he survives and I don't get arrested, every time he feels his nose start to run or throat start to itch, he will suck it up and stop being such a p****y. Spread the word!

Even if you did take some sort of drug to be confident, which is obviously retarded, the psychological effects are always the strongest when you first take it. If you do it enough you get used to it and become more and more 'normal' when you're high.
