"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.

Don't go on a sidetrack and turn this into a "whether a man should hit a woman" thread. That's for another discussion.

What we have here is something that actually is being noticed by people. Aimed advertising, but the message is deterimental this time.. I bet if you go into some of those big companies marketing boardrooms you would be shocked. They know what they're doing. They've researched it forever and the reason they put out commercials and advertise the way they do is because they can make a buck. No big surprise there. They aim at weak-minded people, so the weak-minded people buy into their strategy and then buy their products because of this. Example: Axe. These guys say that because you wear their deodorant that chicks will like you because you smell good. Smelling good is always good, but I'd rather rely on myself than the way I smell because of their product.

Yes, more women are moving up into higher positions that have more power, and that correlates into change; change in the form of what gets put out into our sphere of our world. But we don't have to be affected by it. We can try to turn this around but society isn't ready for it. I wish it was, but there's too much going on for people to accept our mindset.

On a sidenote. I told my girl I like how she's girly and feminine. She smiled while she painted her toenails. Seek the good ones.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

You're right. I don't know how this thread turned into a debate on domestic violence. This is not the subject!
