"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.

I'm researching these two careers for a course of mine and I was wondering if someone with experiance in either of the two would answer a quick 9 quetion interview for me. Please add your email and name (optional) incase my teacher wants to check my sources. Thanks in advance.

Quetion:

1. Tell me about your job. Is what you do different in any way from what others in your occupation do?

2. Can you tell me about your background and how you got into the field?

3. What personal characteristics are required for someone ot be successful in your job?

4. How much job security is there for people in your field?

5. What other jobs could you do with the skills you have gained in this field?

6. What do you think the future holds for people in your occupation?

7. What are the biggest challenges in your job?

8. Are there many opportunities in your field? What should people do to get started?

9. Is there anything you would like to add? Or anything that I should have asked about? Thank you!
 

"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.

Not to be rude but I don't need that. I need someone who's actually a psychologist or diplomat, so I can compare the interview quetions with an another person I interviewed.
Those would be my answers, in extreme detail. All of your questions are answered therein.

Ok guess I'll have to fudge the answers. Well thanks anyway.
Actually, that link will give you the general standards for the answers you are looking for. Are you looking for answers which are exceptions?
