"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.

So yeah, this HB8 in the same class as I already has a boyfriend, and there's basically nothing I can do (from what I understand, she lives with him, and I don't know him). Anyway at that point, the most logical step would probably be to next her, I guess.

Except for the fact that the other girls in the group, well... they range from unattractive to outright stupid and unable to have a proper conversation, to the extent that no matter how hot they are (some of them look even better than that other girl), I just can't stand them.

Anyway, that HB8 and I kinda get along (she doesn't talk to a lot of people besides me, mainly for the reasons I stated above), but I may have messed up to an extent by giving her my notes so she could have all of the lessons (she arrived one month after the beginning of this semester). To be fair, I thought she really needed them, seeing how she's really serious about studying and given the fact that I was basically the only one to be reliable enough for that. The fact is, most of them either skip classes or don't get anything and can't take proper notes, and some others outright dislike her (she seems to be sort of upper-class and is more articulate than what you would expect from people around here, so she gets labeled as having a "bourgeois attitude" by some people ; personally, that's part of what I like about her).
Besides, I don't remember doing anything else that could have made me come off as needy.

I'm wondering if I wouldn't be better off accepting getting friendzoned (she never complains anyway), after all it's a lot of fun talking to her and getting to know her (also it's kinda rare not to be the only one thinking that we're surrounded by morons this semester :D ), and I could still use the time to work on myself (I've just started boxing and partly thanks to this chick, I'm more motivated to study even though my grades were already good. I think the same goes for her too, she is already hard-working, knows that I appreciate that and she seems to look up to me in that department).

I don't really know if I'm deluding myself into reverting to some sort of AFC, or maybe I just don't want drama or am tired of this... I know the decision will eventually be mine, but I'd like some input from people around here. Maybe I missed something.

Oh and thanks for reading the wall of text, I tried to make it bearable but that wasn't an easy task. :)

"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.

I dont understand the question...... What is it YOU want? It seems to me you are starting to get oneitis for this one girl but that is from my perspective, what I think you should do is relax and stay calm dont be all over her when she needs something you are not her "Friend" yet plus your not an AFC. What I would do is just one day just ask her out and if she say's no then dont take it to hard she will see that her saying no to you didnt destroy your world and might see you as better as most of the other guy's she hangs out with. Good luck and good luck with the boxing.

I'm a bit confused actually. Might be oneitis except that I when I thought about nexting her, I had no problem with the idea until I took a look around, then I was like "...eww".
I could do without the awkward situation if she said but it's definitely not something that would destroy my world as you put it. That's why I was considering just being her friend as that might not hurt my feelings too much, and not bothering with other chicks in my class as I have no interest in them (seriously, I tried and gave them a chance and that was a headache-inducing experience :crazy: ).
At the same time, that would seem like just taking the easy route, and I'm not really comfortable with that when I look at it this way. That's what I meant when I mentioned reverting to an AFC.

Hah, being the "watch and learn" kind of guy that I am, I can't help wishing I could meet her boyfriend.

Don't turn gay on us now. Just kidding.

I understand what your going through. I have some pretty stupid girls at my school and it's very frustrating trying to talk to them.

You don't have to game every girl you see and it's actually a good idea to befriend some girls.

I would focus on school. Then on weekends, go out to the mall, movies or any social place and meet women.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
