"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.

Body Language in reference to dominance, sexuality, etc.

The DJ Bible has a few paragraphs, but I think we should try to get something detailed. If communication is mainly body language, shouldn't there be a bigger focus on that than what to say?

Teach me what you know, or point me in the direction of the knowledge.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

There's a great book out there on body language that isn't well known in this community. It's called Star Quality: Seven Steps to Develop Your Charismatic Power and it's by Christen Brown. I just looked it up on Amazon and you can get a used hardcover copy of it for $4.70. It's the only book I've ever found on this topic that is full of PRACTICAL tips for improving your body language and communication and I'd highly recommend it.

too much analyzation and phylosophies
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Just trying something in addtion to the DJ bible, to supplement what I feel is my weak area. I've seen myself on camera, and I can seem feminine sometimes, even when I think I'm being normal.

Not analyzing a problem, just looking for a solution.

Thanks for the list, but those, in my opinion, are crap.

I've read them and got nothing useful out of them. Too much general statements and as Kidd would say, they have "too much analyzation and phylosophies ". I just want something practical that I can apply.
