"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.

"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.

Like Iraq, Libya was just another neo-con oil war.

One thing's for sure.
The West isn't in Libya out of humanitarian concern.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
What? You mean that Libya under Ghadaffi (although a dictator) had one of the highest standards of living and educated people in it's region, the highest Human Development Index in the region, 4th largest GDP in the region and now suddenly 10,000 people are killed, the country's infrastructure is destroyed and Sharia Law has been declared by the National Transitional Council?Quiksilver said:

So Arcbound, why do you think the people revolted?
I'm not saying you're wrong just genuinely curious.

While that country did get more islamic under Gaddafi's rule it was surely a lot more secular than it is now. Gaddafi did a lot of great things for the people there while ruthlessly crushing all those that opposed him. From our standpoint the old version of Libya was actually better, Gaddafi stated there was no room for extremism in the country when he was still around. What do they have now? Sharia law and polygamy... LOL WTF..
