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.
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.
I'm still pretty cool. I'm just older. I joined this forum when I was 18. I turn 25 next month. I'm dealing with too many things in life these days to contend with the DJ forums. Stop by every now and then, was planning on writing a really comprehensive essay on the things I've learned over the last several years.Oxide said:Look who crawled from the attic.
Whatever happened to you man, you used to be pretty cool, I still rememember that "Accidental slip in while foreplay" technique![]()
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.
Dude I would LOVE to read that, seriously, I think you have a lot of practical advice, so yeah get on that!REd-xL said:I'm still pretty cool. I'm just older. I joined this forum when I was 18.

Yeah, no 5hit. Hope life's treating you well, Red.Look who crawled from the attic.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

My vote goes to the Game's New CD - Doctor's Advocate.
Along with Jay-z Kingdom come

The new game cd is wack as a motherf.ucker. I listened to every song, and I'd be just fine if I never heard a single one of them ever again. Same with the new Lloyd Banks. Hunger for More was badass, then he comes out with the Rotten Apple horses.hit! Boring beats, no catchy lyrics on both of those cds.

My life revolves around music, just not professionally. I write articles and reviews for some zines, keep an mp3 blog, and make a little (****ty) music of my own on the side. I eat, sleep, and breathe music. I kept count, and I've listened to over 1200 albums this year alone. It's easy enough to do when 90% of it only gets one spin because I end up disliking most of what I hear. But coming across that 10% is what keeps me going...at the gym, in the car, falling asleep, etc.Ricky said:I've only heard of one of those bands in that top 50 list. I don't think I've listened to 50 albums this year. Where do you find that time? Impressive list, you must be in the business?
