"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.

ok, i dunno, i DEFINITELY think uni's a good place to go and meet chicks, but u gotta know where to meet em and at the right places

growing up in an international school, people from my university are a LOT different than i am (personality wise). girls tend to be more conservative and held back, less wild. thats one of the downsides i found from unis here in manila

but u will find girls...face it, university is HUGE...they can't be all cold fishes. college events, parties, etc...there's plenty of poons to go around.

i stress the fact that chicks will start comin whenever ur not lookin for them.

hope that contributed somehow...later
 

"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.

Where I be at
Hey I'm in Canada and it's cool. Well cold to be exact :) But that's another story. Anywho, you just gotta keep pushing ahead. Like clas isn't the only time for interactions. One of THE prime times for me is durin eating times. I don't call up my friends and ask them to go. I go down there solo and if we meet up, so be it, if not I'll find some new friends to kick it with. I saw an interesting post on a differnt site that said "Don't be caught with one social circle" keep jumping from each to each, so no-one can hold you back, but everyone gets to know you, and can't judge you from far away"

The other thing I did is sat down and read a paper outside of a class where people were lining up for class and the people were just walking by giving eye contact non stop, so you can always chill outside a classroom before and after and people wikll be in a more talkative mood

I commute as well... but I am practically dorming. I am up there from morning till night everyday, and party every weekend. Commuting doesn't necessarily mean a bad thing, however, I regret not dorming to begin with.

It depends on how big the school is. If it's a small school, your chances of making stable friends will be easier but it may be harder to date because there are fewer girls to choose from. Cliques are more rampant at smaller schools, so b!tch shields will be aplenty. Good luck.

There may also be a difference between private and public schools (universities). Private school girls may be more reserved, because they tend to come from more upper class backgrounds (sometimes, of course not all Ivy League girls are from Old Money - many are also scholarship winners, etc from normal socioeconomic levels). I dunno.... just a guess.
 

"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.
