"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.

Look on the main page of this site and read the article titled "The Ooze." What do you think about this? The author clearly encourages story embellishment and lying to win the opinion of chicks. Do you agree with this or disagree? Why? How much embellishment is too much? I'm thinking the chick could check with your friends and find out if you're lying or not.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I don't care much for the article myself. I think it's just his point of view, and not all girls are like the one he described. I wasn't really impressed with how he said you should make it seem like you have been in fights or play rough sports, either. It's sounds rather insecure, actually. Not that I havn't played rough sports
or have engaged in fights, I just don't think that sort of behaviour is a prerequisite to woman, and who cares otherwise.

That's my opinion anyways...

I think that article gives bad advice, because it encourages you to brag about yourself on dates. If you brag on dates, you give off the impression that you want to impress the broad, and that is considered desperation, not confidence. You should be making her try and impress you. Not only that, but the more you tell her about yourself, the less of a mystery you are.

Personally I think that the guy's hookup was a fluke. The girl sounded like someone who isn't used to getting approached (embarassed after sex, what is she amish?). A secure confident woman will see right through your bragging and will ditch your ass.

There are many ways to "ooze testosterone" other then bragging. Unyielding eyecontact, kino, low voice, etc all achieve the same result, and don't make you look desperate.

You're better off reading Pimpologist's methods in the bible then bothering with the "ooze"

Yeah, rgeere, I think it's a bad tip. Makes it sound like you 'have something to prove.' It goes against the "don't give a fukk" attitude.

How that made the main page ...

... I'll never know. I was cracking up reading it, thinking is this for real? Do guys really act like that?

Many women might be clueless, but many more also pick up on things, like B.S.

Some of the tips that make the home page are amazingly bad and I'm shocked they land there.

If you have to force things, you're not on your game.

Sorry, MOM, I didn't see your post b/c you posted right before me. But yeah I agree. The tip is bad, makes you sound like a try-hard.

Yup, there are many other ways to 'ooze' testosterone, none of which involve bragging. Also, Pimpologist was the man! You have inspired me to go re-read his tips!

Westcoaster, LOL. Yeah now that I imagine it, hearing a guy tell a chick "Yeah and once I got in a fight..you know... for my friend" sounds INCREDIBLY INSECURE.

I dunno how the tip got on the main-page either. Who proof-reads them? Allen? Anyways I can only recall a few "tips" articles from the main-page but one that is simply GOLD is "Forestwalk." Excellent kino and FUN! :)
