"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.

Suddenly occurred to me how important it is that a girl likes your smell. What are some great colognes? Or even pheromones, as was previously mentioned.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

I like CH Men and Creed. Just don't over do it. Artificial pheromones are a joke. Your body creates it's own pheromones; just like a woman. Stick to bulking up, some decent cologne and high confidence.

If you never tried artificial pheromones then you should not be knocking it. My ex-wife liked "Instant Shine" and was always aware when I put just one spray on it. I never forgot her reaction to it. She would say she liked the perfume but I never told her it was a "feel good" pheromone, she thought it was a normal perfume.

I've googled searched and I've noticed a number of various sites selling it. There are basic artificial molecules in common with all of them....you'd have to find a sexual pheromone and mix it with a social pheromone to buffer it. You can OD on a sexual pheromone and get a ghost effect, but social pheromones don't have that problem from what I read. To really test it, try a real sexual pheromone, put it on your wrist, and ask your date to say you are trying this new perfume out, how does it smell?

Natural pheromones....I've tried that approach in 2008 (i.e. bathe in dead-sea salt, do not use soap when showering because soap washes away your body's natural pheromones, etc....use essential oils like Sandlewood. The less you shower, the more natural pheromones you have, etc... Yes, exercise, esp. cardio can boost natural pheromones). Again, I tried this in 2008, didn't notice any major results, then I tried artificial ones in 2011, and did notice some subtle hits here and there, but nothing that I would say was a game-changer. Any relationship/marriage I eventually got afterwards was not due to this at the end of the day and it was just a phase. The more practical use of pheromones was really if I hit a depression, I'd spray Instant Shine on to break the depression rather than use it to attract woman. I don't get depressed much anymore and typically have a content emotion and no pheromones are currently being used.

As a cologne collector I can give you a few moderately priced crowd pleasers that women love. I have a few that are expensive by houses like Creed or Bond No. 9 but they aren't really necessary, cologne is just one of my hobbies so I'll spend a little more than the average consumer. I have a 40 bottle collection and growing.
All of these I list can be found for under 70 bucks and are safe blind buys.

Summer/Spring Day:
Aqua di Gio, D&G light blue intense, Nautica Voyage, Mont Blanc Individuel

Summer/Spring night:
Aqua Di Gio Profumo, Azzaro Wanted, Carolina Hererra 212 NYC, Mont Blanc Legend


Fall/Winter day:

Terre De Hermes by Hermes, Chanel Egoiste, Bleu de Chanel, Armani Code, Jean Paul Gautier Le Male, Givenchy Pi

.
Fall/Winter night
Jean Paul Gautier Ultra male, Paco Rabonne 1 million, Yves St. laurent La nuit de L'homme

Different colognes usually are better suited for one season or another but if you are more economical and just want 1 or 2 year rounders here are a few that you can get away with all year and all occasions

Bleu De Chanel(great inoffensive work scent), Dior Sauvage(Inoffensive great smell maybe projects too much for work), Prada Luna Rosa Carbon, Chanel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme,

Prada L'homme(Probably the most professional smelling work cologne. Smells amazing. The cologne for someone with a business casual lifestyle. It just smells like professionalism).

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
