Whatever happened to Str8up?
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
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 sure each gender hates something about the opposite sex, one of the things I hate is how women have to be attracted to men that are leadersnoobolgy said:You know what really sucks. We have to do a group project in my interpersonal oral communication class. Every group gets a question. My groups question is, "How does gender affect interpersonal communication."
My group has 6 people, 5 of wich are female. fml. I'm going to get my point across, but little bits and pieces here and there, untill I can slowly guide them like retarded children, to understand how the world really works.
We will see how it goes.
I'm sure the advice here still is validHalfAddict said:This is why I barely come around anymore, aside from backpacking the gulf coast this summer, starting a great new IT career and dating women that is.
This post is basically useless and offers nothing to anyone. Whats the point of bumping a useless 5 year old thread.
