"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.

Are there any women who like to be the dominant one?

I'm very passive and lazy and a bit on the timid side, and seeing my therapist years ago, I said that women wouldn't want me because I'm not a leader I'm a follower and women want a guy with the leader personality. She suggested I try to find a woman who wants to be in charge, be the dominant one. She said she had a girlfriend like that where she was the dominant one, made all the decisions etc, and the husband was just kind of passive and just went along with whatever she said and they were both happy that way. But I wouldn't want a relationship where she's like a drill sergeant or anything, but more where the roles were reversed and she was taking care of me. I'm way past the point of having any pride and being 35 it would be too hard to become what sites like sosuave describe as a "real man" and I don't care enough to try anyway. So it's either this or die alone and at 35 I've been alone half my life now so another 35 (hopefully much shorter) isn't going to kill me. If only it would, actually.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

They're out there. Start looking

I dont agree with your decision to avoid change, but you seem to have given this enough thought. I wont lecture you, I assume you've heard it before.

Good luck

Hmm,I wouldn't describe myself as passive, but I have trouble seeing myself or becoming the leader. I mean, I wouldn't let anyone walk all over me,but I do believe in being a team player. I have been told I am a little too laid back,not go getting enough,but I know,there is no way in hell I would have some woman walk all over me or boss me around or expect me to put up with her ****. There is one girl at work,I would say a definite 8,and yeah,every guy wants to bang her. She's got a nice bod,decent face,and a sweet rounded ass. Sometimes she is ok to deal with,sometimes she acts like miss thang. **** that.

Your therapist gives you good advice. There are such things called poles in men and women.

Think of it like the north and south pole.

One pole is Masculine and the other is Feminine. All of us can be placed between or on those poles.

In your case, you're more towards the feminine. You're passive, not big on confrontation, and you aren't really a leader in your own right.

Men and women can fall in all places between these poles. What your sex is doesn't matter. Just because you fall towards the feminine, doesn't mean your gay. It usually has to do with how you've been raised or experiences early in life.

It's said that one pole attracts the opposite pole. A feminine woman will be attracted by a masculine man. A masculine woman will be attracted by a feminine man.

This rule doesn't always hold true, but it does more often than not.

It's really up to you. If you want a masculine woman ordering you around all your life and making the decisions in your relationship, that's your priority. Be warned however, SHE controls the relationship. SHE will end the relationship if she wants to. You have no control over this. SHE will cheat on you if she chooses to and guarantee me you will have no say in this.

So the question begs.

Do you want to start being a man?

Do you want to improve yourself and attract women that you can have control over?

In my eyes, the obvious answer is yes.

If you're young, there's definitely room to improve and change yourself. If you're old, **** there's still room.

It's really your call. What do you want to be? Do you want to sit in the background like a house wife or challenge yourself everyday in life like a man?

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I don't think you need to be thinking about women right now. you need to focus on you and get your sh*t together. just from the way you've written the post, not to mention your user name, you clearly have some deeper issues that need taking care of. you may be 35 but you can change, you can still improve and become a better more fulfilled person. do you really want to wait out the next 35 years until death comes knocking?

You can always change dude. Always. Even little things. In fact, you always start with the little things.

As for your question, yeah, MANY women like to be the dominant one in the relationship. And there's nothing wrong, to me, if your woman happens to be the one with the stronger personality and dominant one if that's the natural role that plays out and both are happy with it. As long as one isn't completely walking all over the other, then this type of role-playing is completely natural.
 

"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.
