PREFACE
Much of this advice is good info for those in/looking for LTR's, but can also be used in short or long game just modified slightly

I'm going to start this post with a quote from an /r/seduction post i saw a month ago.

"Girls are attracted to men that are leading awesome lives and are passionate about what they do. Guys that are living passionate, fun lives don’t need (or even want) girls to make them happy. Girls like that because it takes the pressure off of them in the relationship and it also makes it seem like they are getting somebody “above” them. Girls even “poke” you sometimes (also known as the shit-test) to see if you are actually passionately directed towards your goal."

This is the ideal I'm pushing forward. It is most certainly important that you as a man DO SOMETHING!

Now by do something™ I really mean pick a hobby or two, or three. Have something you do that you are passionate about. There are several reasons for this which all reflect on your SMV, so just do something.

1.) Doing something gives you peace of mind.

I for one am a skateboarder, and that fact alone has helped me in my interactions with women unlike anything else in my life. Skateboarding give me a foundation on how i spend my time. It gives me an "out" option for when I get rejected because I know i can just spend that day skating if I'm not with a girl. (know, that even as Alphas you WILL be rejected time to time) That peace of mind in knowing that I don't care if I'm rejected is viewed by women as possible disinterest, which makes women more interested because of how terrified of rejection they are. Being able to exude the opinion of "I don't care if we go out because I have other things I can do" bumps your SMV by at least 20% instantly.

2.) Faking that disinterest is a tough skill to master.

Actually doing something for fun makes it so you don't HAVE to fake that because you legitimately won't care anymore. It no longer becomes part of game, but part of your personality from your base stats.

3.) Having something you can do means you can be passionate.

Girls looking for/in relationships want passion. A non shown shit-test often deployed by women is a general view of the level of passion a man has. Girls subconsciously think that if you aren't/weren't passionate about something before&not her that there's no way you could ever be passionate about her, causing her to lose interest. Girls will regularly test how passionate you are about what ever it is you should be passionate about.

4.) Having something you do means you most likely won't be a sniveling Beta.

This reflects back on number 1, but having a thing to do means you won't seem to have oneitis. You have a thing to OCCUPY YOUR TIME. Because of this fact you don't spend your time texting/snapchatting/calling your girl all day long. Doing those things in a womans' head translates to her having to constantly PROVIDE emotional support to you. If she's providing for you, you aren't providing for her and you are a beta. So, do something.

5.) Doing something makes you more interesting than that other guy at the bar

A majority of guys don't do anything. They work, play video games, watch football, and workout (maybe). Doing something means you have interesting experiences she may not be able to have outside of your help. You can now provide her with something she's possibly never had before. The other guy she spoke to earlier, he's now in the back of her mind because regardless of what he said to her, he doesn't have anything that she couldn't get from any other guy.

6.) What you do shows you are tough

Now depending on what you do this point reflects on 1 or 2 types of toughness.

      1} Physical toughness       2} Mental fortitude 

In my case as a skateboarder (amongst other things but I'll use this as my prime example), my hobby has me jumping down flights of stairs and falling onto concrete. I'm able to take a hit because I do it for fun (as evidence by what I do. If I can take a hit fights won't phase me, I can physically protect her. +5 points for my SMV.) On top of that, I'm trying the trick for hours on end just to land a single maneuver. I have the mental fortitude and the drive to stick to my guns and try something until I get it. In other words I don't take no for an answer.

What you do could show you are either (or both) of these types of tough.

7.) Doing something means you are bettering yourself

What you choose to do plays a role in this as well, but practicing a hobby means you are learning, and growing. That attitude generally follows you in life outside of your hobby. This means your girls interest will not fade over time because there will ALWAYS be new things about you to pique her interest.

8.) Lastly, It can give you something to do WITH her and teach her (if need be)

IF/when the time comes where you run out of things to do you can always invite her to try what you do. It one, gives you something to do, and two makes her learn something knew by your accord. By being the provider of something new for her to learn it cements you in place as a dominant provider. You are now giving her knew knowledge, skills, and experiences she may have never even had the opportunity to have had she not known/hung out with you.

So go learn to do something. Make it something you actually enjoy. If you try it and don't like it, stop and try something else. Don't know where to start? I'll help you out, this is a list of hobbies you can try.
