Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Thinking about majoring in CIS, any thoughts?

"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.

I majored in computer sci, and am working as a software engineer. I make good money - almost six figures. But if I had to do it again, I would major in something else, possibly business or finance. The job market is too unstable - unless, like me, you have great education and experience. And the work gets really boring. You also have to work with a lot of geeks.

Hmm well according to my CIS teacher, he says to major in cis instead of finance or marketing since everyone else is majoring in that and it's more competitive. And why communications. I think I'm gonna minor in that because it seems inteeresting to me but I want to major in something that pays the bills and then some.

CIS is a lucrative field, at least for accounting related professions. I can tell you about the accounting side of CIS.

Many of the Big 4 want CIS majors and would kill for an accounting & CIS dual major. These guys usually become systems auditors for public companies and evaluate ERP systems, for example. The standard cert for this is CISA, check it out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Certified_Information_System_Auditor

Oh, and communications majors are sh!te... i am not allowed to date communications majors any more, those girls are insane !!!

btw anyone notice how communication teachers are all full of themselves and think the communications field is the most important in the world? and assign a large workload because of it? please... the communications school at my university is only set up for kids who couldn't get in to the journalism school.
 

"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.

That's cool. I was thinking of obtaining another degree in business, as I think I want to phase into finance.
