"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.

I took a tranquilizing pill that activated my depression. I was standing in front of this girl silent and in my head while my friend was talking to her (he wasn't trying to game her, he was just making friendly conversation). I had my hands behind my back (one hand cupping wrist) and he made a joke "you're standing like a soldier." In response to this she mimicked a soldier's stance and I laughed it off saying "I am a soldier." I'm worried that I conveyed stiffness and uptightness.
 

"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.

What is your question?
I'm trying to figure out the same thing...

Hell, I'm trying to figure out if this belongs in "Discussion," "Health and Fitness," "Anything Else," or "Unusual Techniques in Seduction."

My question: would me having my hands behind my back (hand holding wrist) coupled with my friend's observational joke of it and her response (mimicking standing like a soldier) leave a permanent impression of me being stiff? The question comes from my negative depressed thoughts. I'd like to talk to her when I'm in a better mood but I feel awkward now because of what I did. Chances are I'm gonna see her again but I'm concerned that I've started to burn a bridge with the demeanor I had tonight

My game is often affected by my depression. When I'm down on myself, my ability to be a DJ gets impeded by my medical condition. I did a foolish thing by taking a drug that exacerbated it and I feel bad about myself. I need to learn how to talk to girls inspite of my moods.

The answer to your question is irrelevant. You should be asking different questions.

Don't take any drugs dude.

Work on your confidence. Keep studying/working, keep your house clean, keep yourself clean, brush your teeth, comb your hair, dress well, be polite.

And don't be a "Woe is me!!" type of guy. That's the biggest turn-off ever, unless you want to attract chicks that cut themselves.

Finally: Someone telling you that you are like a soldier is a compliment imo.

What are you some kind of hippy anarchist that hates anything to do with discipline and masculinity? Be a fvckin soldier.

Funny you should say it was a compliment. I actually told the guy I had a problem with what he said earlier today and we are no longer friends. The comment itself didn't bother me. I projected my low mood onto it and it did. I regret standing near my friend and that girl at the time. It left me vulnerable at the wrong time for me. When I'm not in a bad mood, I have no problem socializing. Especially with girls.

I'm sure she forgot about it.

He probably forgot it until you told him he had a problem with it.

You need to forget about it.

No relationship hinges on one single momentary interaction.
