"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 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.

I'm sticking with red meat. Much easier to obtain.

No. Just no.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Okay... Where to begin... I actually don't know where to start, aside from saying that a chick will be slightly creeped out by your hobby.

Personally I have eaten grasshoppers, and frogs for that matter. They're a common food in Indonesia where I lived for a while. Hardly appetizing, even when ground up, fried, breaded, dipped in chocolate, whatever.

Omen should have included this in his Cheap University Food list.

Normally I'd close this thread because while it is interesting for the purpose of health and fitness, it goes against the concept of the whole website.

However... there are some threads that are "too weird to live, yet too rare to die." - Raoul Duke.

Play on.

oh and lobster too
They're not arachnids, they're crustaceans.

I remember walking by some stalls in Thailand and seeing cooked bugs. They actually smelled pretty good but I was grossed out nonetheless. I just imagine biting into them and having this slimy goo squirt out into my mouth. Just the thought makes me want to throw up.

I've already accepted the fact that I eat them in bread. Nothing I can do about it, but at least in that case, it's not obvious, until I see that little black speck on my corn flakes or bread and you know what it is, most likely a tiny piece of an insect exoskeleton.

I do think though that if we ever got over the taboo of it, insects would be a good source of food, but I'll stick to chicken breast and steak as my protein of choice.
