"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.

At the age of 25 (26 in May) I still feel I haven't really had a period where I had fun and got laid a lot. On average I've had one/two sex partners every year this decade, and that ain't hopeless, but I don't feel I have "tried" enough women to find out what I like and what I don't like. Of course, a lot of this comes down to social anxiety, which I've worked hard on reducing (and have to a degree succeeded).

What I'd like to ask you is: Do you think it's too late to have a "Don Juan"-period at the age of 26? This might be overanalyzing, but I'm asking for your thoughts. Now I know there are mostly (but not only) Americans on this board, and I'm Norwegian, so some cultural differences may apply. Please give your thoughts in the context of your own culture - we're similar enough! :D

Thanks!
 

"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.

Interesting thread. I too never had a 'fun period' and I'm almost 28. In fact, I've been laid exactly three times. Not per year, but ever. No sex has made me a frustrated non-sexual guy.
Going out to clubs and bars I watch hot girls dance with guys and DAMN....these guys are fondling, squeezing ass, and acting like they're gonna screw ten times that night. I just can't shake the feeling that an HB would freak out if I slid up to her on the floor and without a word, grinded her ass and slipped my hand down her thigh.
I have plenty of friends, some of them girls. All of them are either married or in long term relationships and really don't inquire as to why I'm the single guy. They just assume I'm cool with being single and don't want to rock the boat.

Its never too late. I'm 26 and just now getting out of this phunk. I had 2 long term relationships. 2 sex partners and I feel like I havne't done sh1t in my social / sexual part of my life.

Everything else is going great except for those two things.

It is NEVER too late. You have wealth of knowledge under your finger tips right here. The harderst part of all this is letting go of your past beliefs and developing new ones.
