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.

Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Does it make you more appreciative of what you have?mahon83050 said:Not to mention the guy was only 5'4". Is he happy with himself? Maybe, I don't know. However, I can't imagine looking like that and being happy.

Deus ex Pianoforte said:Sounds about right. The guy denouncing a looks-matter thread is out nailing the hotties while the guy PERPETUATING the looks-matter myth is losing his virginity after being on the site for 7 years.
so how many thousands of cold approaches have you done to get this loser mindset?Deus ex Pianoforte said:Tricky question. Have I used the tools on this site to gain confidence? Yes. Did they work? No. Have I hooked up with any girls because of the tools? I have a girlfriend, but in the 2 years that I've been on this site I've had exactly one opportunity to hook up with a girl. And she was wasted. Far below average success, so I must be far below average-looking, right? Of course not; that's absurd. But that's exactly what guys like mahon are trying to preach.
Oh, I don't whine. I accept my lack of confidence as a major personal flaw. We all have them. My flaw just happens to be the number one quality women look for in a man. And every time I try I either get ignored and occassionally flat-out rejected. I must be REALLY ugly, right?
This is one of the main reasons this thread is illegal, btw. There's nothing to argue. The facts speak for themselves.
How are you not banned? You make no points.mahon83050 said:You're an idiot my friend. Just look how you yourself treat attractive people subconsciously and all of the studies done on it. So I guess these experts and psycologists are all idiots as well?
I got laid last month, but it was not my first time. Where the hell did that come from.
