"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.

Put x's at the end of every message they write?

Why do they do this? Kiss everyone like that.
 

"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.

One girl I used to date would put a little wink at the end of almost every message. I asked her why she did that and she says she doesn't know. She said it was just a texting habit.

Well, there you go. I wouldn't read too much into it

To make you think they're hitting on you. And when you take their 'innocent' x's as an indicator of interest they shoot you down and tell you they only like you as a friend and didn't mean to lead you on.

False IOI's. IOI's don't mean sh*t. If she shows up on the date and f**ks, that's an IOI. Anything else is fluff. Take it with a grain of salt.
 

"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.

Exactly right, honorable judge Nismo.

Last year, there was a girl I was gaming a bit, trying to get out, bang, etc. You know the drill.

Though I never blew up her phone or got into too many online chats, there were a few (and none very long). At the end of every one, she signed off "xoxo" and a smiley face.

What to know what become of that?

1) She never agreed to meet me out.

2) She lied about her relationship status (i.e., said she was just out of a divorce, was reticent about dating...all the while banging a buddy of mine, though she didn't know we knew each other).

3) Continued her flirty ways with me after dropping guy in (2) above and branch swinging to new guy... while still signing off with "xoxo."

I dropped my pursuit before I even knew about these guys because she didn't play along with my game plan. Still, when I found out, I chuckled. Women...

X's, O's, and smiley faces meaning nothing to most hos except as a way of keeping a man like a cat chasing a dangling string. Proceed with caution.

Yes, ultimately they mean nothing until the P is in the V.

Just for the sake of it. It's just their nature. Every girl and women I know does it to me (including my mom and grandma). If a girl texts me with an "x" at the end I'll do it back; if not then I won't. I don't really analize it.
