"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.

"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.

OK so you're a short arse, just admit it.

Make a mental note when chatting up girls to ask them whether they can sow.

Once you've found a Seamstress, bone her, even if she's ugly. Then get her to dart and shorten all your fav. T shirts.

Then dump her.

In my day you just used to tuck 'em in. :rolleyes:

Well, you go around and try them on until you find the size that fits you best. This is why most stores have "dressing rooms". If it doesn't fit, it doesn't fit. Short of getting it altered, which is a little extreme for a T-shirt, there isn't anything you can do about beside not buying it and looking somewhere else. Finito.

I have a hard time finding shirts (mostly button-up) that fit right on me.....I'm between 5'8 and 5'9 and around 160. Most of the time the shirts are S, M, L, and XL.....for skinny guys, fit guys, bulky guys and fat guys who are all 6'2 and over. Or the small will be almost short enough for me but too tight.

The best store I've found for fashionable/etc shirts that fit perfectly on me is Buckle. I've found so many really nice, perfectly fitting shirts there.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

It depends.
Sometimes you want a t shirt with a nice snug fit. It helps if you've got nice sized shoulders and tricepts and aren't too overweight in the gut area.

Other times I like to wear my tshirts long so they'll still fit correctly but goes below the mid section.

Most guys have hundreds of t shirts so you should rotate through them so your shirts don't get all worn out over the course of a few months either.

Yeah but I always hate the guys that wear those tight shirts. It's kind of gay in a way.

Then again my girlfriend always liked me in them. I am just not comfortable wearing tight shirts in public.

For me at 5/10 and 175, a large is good. A medium would be too tight.
