"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 don't know where I'm coming from
I've recently assumed grocery responsibilities in my house, and I was just curious-which is better for you, butter or margarine, and why?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

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.

I've never been that anal to think about it but I usually buy the Country Crock. I would assume margarine is better for you but my reasons are nothing but my gut instinct.

I *think* that butter is better because margarine is extremely high in trans-fatty acids. I'm not sure which is better for you calorie or nutrition-wise, though...

I buy real butter.

Butter is a natural product that comes from a cow.

Margarine/vegetable oil products start out at as liquids at room temperature and have to be fully hydrogenated to make them solids. THAT MAKES MARGARINE A REFINERY PRODUCT! You might as well start adding antifreeze to diet.

I try to stay away from any foods that have been refined. White bread and white rice SUCK. They have been bleached destroying the nutrition and converting complex carbs to sugars. Ramen noodles are NOT pasta. That stuff is 15 seconds away from being sugar. By real whole grain, stone ground pasta, or learn to make your own. "Juiced drinks" like Hi-C and Sunny Dare scarcely better than cool-aid. They are largely corn syrup. Use real juice instead (from concentrate is fine.)

Margirine is BAD for you, butter isn't exactly good for you, but you can digest it easier. As NMMWCR stated, margirine contains refined vegetable oils. They are super-heated & infused with hydrogen to make it hard. It changes the nature of the oil It's no longer an unsaturated fat...nor a saturated one. It's a trans-fat, which is totally alien to our body.

Personally, I use extra virgin olive oil for almost everything, including my breakfast toast.

Wishful thinking, I know!

As to the point of this thread: Margarine is a fukkin' abomination... Butter all the way!!

BUTTER ME UP AND THROW ME TO THE LESBIANS!
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

Speaking as someone from the 'Land o'Lakes' (Minnesota), you are correct sir!!!

Butter is not as bad as margarine overall, but either should be eaten in moderation.

Two days ago, I read that butter is better than margarine. Don't eat lots of butter, though.

When I pan fry things with butter I put a little bit of olive oil in the pan first...it really helps keep the butter from burning up too fast, and you don't need to use as much...give that a try.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Butter by far

Especially organic, if you can get it. The hormones and antibiotics tend to go to the fat.

Trans fats are the worst. Saturated fats at least don't trick the body and deform the cells into which they're incorporated.
