"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 many New Years Resolutioners at the gyms every January, only to quit by February.

The sad part is that with so many of them flooding the gyms it makes it tougher for us regular workout people to get in a workout and it's tougher for them as well. I'm sure they get discouraged at well waiting at the gym and it takes twice as long to fit in a workout.

I hate January at the gym.

The only solution that I've found is to go in at the times when noone else goes like early in the morning.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I know. The liberal viewpoint would be, hey remember you used to be a beginner two, but even when I was a beginner I didn't wait for it to be a New Years resolution. Hah, I started in summer.

And the bad part is it only brings in a few more nice looking girls.

More of them aren't good and alot of fat dudes taking up space too LOL

I hear ya. Luckily I'm back at college in a week and I go to a small school so it never gets too crowded. It's so freaking obvious these people are gonna quit in a month that they get hardly any benefit.

For me it's not just new year's, but the start of each semester. It's funny though, I guess since people "dedicate themselves to lifting" twice a year, they only come for about 2 weeks before quitting.

Always keep your eyes open for the hapless lady who might need a hand...
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
