"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.

Ok something happened to me today, and I want to know if I misread the situation or if it's something a straight guy would do.

ok I'm sitting down at a computer in my college computer lab, writing some stuff down. this guy walks up from somewhere and sits at the computer next to me doing his own thing for awhile. then he goes

guy: hey bro can i borrow your pen (i look at him and the way he's looking and asking gives me a wierd vibe), but i give him the pen. he uses it for awhile and gives it back saying thanks.

then he goes

what year are you in?
me: 2nd without looking at him, and staring at the screen
guy: what are you taking
me: bio and psych, again without looking and my face probably looked a little negative
guy: (after i dont respond for a couple secs) ok thanks again
me: yea no problem (and he leaves)

now im just wondering am I right in my judgement that this guy was gay or is this something you would see a straight guy doing @ college. to me this seems like the kind thing a straight guy would say to a girl when trying to pick her up.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Maybe, maybe not. Maybe he just wanted to meet people. A lot of people in college don't have friends so they are just trying to make friends.

I agree with this post, and therefor I am quoting it.

Just because some dude tried to strike up a conversation with you doesn't mean he's trying to hit on you. I'm not sure if you're homophobic or simply have too large of an ego, but from the threatened tone I'm guessing the first. Don't worry mate, when a gay guy sees a straight guy the last thing he's probably thinking is how to get in his pants. IMO they're probably wondering how the hell we go around with our skin and hair looking like that :p

Chill. He seems like a perfectly normal and polite guy to me, who's just trying to make some friends! I started several conversations today on campus with students waiting for their classes.. Half of them were dudes... Nothing wrong with meeting new people! Don't assume that just cuz a dude wants to start a conversation with you, that he's gay! He is probably in search of friends! I'm trying to build a social circle at school...
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

If he was tapping morse code on the floor while mouthing he wants you to "bite the pillow" that would indicate he was looking for something more than your pen.

You read too much into it (but keep a condom in your wallet just in case you do fall and slip on one).
