"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.

Where are you fellow seniors going to college next year?
I will find out from Ohio State tomorrow if I've been accepted and thats where I want to go but if not I will be attending the University of Cincinnati for a year and then transfer because it's the least expensive compared to all the other colleges I got into thus far.
 

"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.

St. John's University Tobin College of Business.

We should have more posts for us HS seniors soon to be college freshmen as it gets closer to Aug. Maybe some of the guys already in college can post some college specific advice like we do for incoming HS students.

Most likely Boston University. Today I found out that they're going to give me a full-tuition scholarship. It was a pleasant surprise to say the least. :)
 

"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.

Yea, some advice for/about college would be sweet. I'd really like to know as much about it as possible before I go so I know what to expect and all that jazz. We need to know about the classes, social life, what they do for fun, and of course the ladies.

I've been accepted to Sam Houston State University which is about an hour away from home and am still waiting to hear from Texas A&M University which is in my city, lol. I could use some input here from you guys. Go to college at home and chance having my parents bug me all the time (Texas A&M) or go to Sam Houston and be totally free of my parents and only be an hour away from home so I could still visit my friends on weekends?

Right now I'm debating between University of Hawaii Manoa and University of Limerick (it's in Ireland).
 

"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.

You only go to college once, right? So would you rather stay in the same city you've been in your whole life, or go out and try something new. I had the choice to go to Cornell, 3 hours from my hometown, or go to St. Louis and be 1000 miles away. I chose St. Louis and haven't looked back, while having the best time of my life.
