"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.

I'm going to share a little secret here about women...

Apparantly, women are genetically superior to us guys, they don't get fat..they get "big boned". A big boned woman told me this truth, so I thought I'd share.

I'd like to know how you add 40 lbs of bone to your frame. I'd also like to know how you get your bones to giggle when you walk. These are the questions that need to be answered.

women are lucky. at least when they put on the weight it goes on their legs and butt - which is very easy to hide.

if a woman looks 'normal' shes probably 20 pounds overweight. if she looks 'fat' shes probably 40 pounds overweight.

us guys have it the worse, everything goes to the one place you can't hide it, your gut.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I can see what they're trying to hide. Even before it goes to their legs and butt you can see it in their face, the back of their arms and even their hands. Some women will say that they're just retaining water but water does not hang like that.

Plus, look at what women wear. Women who keep themselves fit typically wear clothes that fit well (not to necessarily mean tight or revealing). Other women will wear things that will either distract your attention from problem areas or just wear ill fitting clothing that covers and hides the overflow.

Being twenty pounds or more overweight is normal nowadays. Add to that the typical holiday weight gain and you start coming across the women who consider themselves "curvy."
