Im 16 and its my spring break. My parents work everyday... so I cant go anywhere during the week in the daytime. I really want to go lift or a friends house or something.. because therse nothing to do at my house, except play games. Which is what ive been doing the past 3 days, and this is really a waste of a good break. What did you all do in your free time before you could drive?
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
What is there to do before your license?

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Play a sport. Football, soccer, hockey. If you have money drive a cart, you will have a lot of fun with that, hurry, because time is slipping away. They say you can drive cart at any age, but you can look good doing it only when you're young and skinny!
You can catch a bus to go where you want to drive.
It be a good idea to start working out at 16. Either buffing up or getting skinny and buff. You'll have a lot more fun in college, especially if you study and learn the game, and make it your own, so thats something to practice.
Hang out with people of your age. Honestely, I cant see you driving to a place like south beach and women women in their 20ties. Those are into guys that are older or their age, but not kids. If you start buffing up you could look more mature..

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Good idea. Now all he needs is an expensive Motorbike and a hella lot of insurance that costs an arm and a leg.bigshot said:

No its not. He's a 16 year old kid. Doesn't even drive a car yet... so he should get a motorcycle?bigshot said:
That's like saying "He should be a basketball player" but he has no hand-eye co-ordination and only one good eye.

Scooters under 50cc, or in some states more cc, do not require a license. Thats what I need, since my license is bad.
50cc is a pretty good size, it can be modified for more air flow through intake and exhaust, you can burn alcohol, you can stroke and bore the engine. My friend, if he's not lying, had a guy register a 250 horse motor on a schooter as 50cc, that's like the best way.
If you watched American Chopper, thats what Miky had after failing motorcycle endorcement test. I think no insurance on those.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Wow...this is a tough one. Hmm...back when I didn't have a license, I basically didn't do much of anything, except play some games.
If you want to "lift," well okay. But, are there other exercises you can do at the house? Is there a bar, shaft, or something where you can do pull-ups? Push-ups are possible almost anywhere.
Is anyone else willing to give you a ride to places? If so, I recommend making it up to them but not in money. Like, at the pictures perhaps offer to buy their ticket, or something like that.
I'm guessing you don't live in a really urban area (Chicago, NYC, etc.). Those are the only places where it's practical to get along without a car, and actually have decent public transit. Anywhere else, you need a car.
I should warn you though...it's basically stays hard until you turn 21. Then you can buy alcohol legally, and get into any bar or club (that I know of). Okay, so some of them don't require you to be 21 to get in, but it's pretty stupid to go there and then not drink at all (like, not even one or two drinks).
That's my experience anyway. I've never met so many people until I turned 21 and started going to bars and clubs. As long as you don't get wasted and start acting like a fool it's great.

"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.
