"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

how many of you guys have bought dating ebooks from this website, like double your dating, or swinggcats ebook?

im wondering if they are worth it, or any good anyway
 

"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 first read Double your Dating and that totally opened my eyes. After absorbing DYD material, I got Swinggcat's book and got a few extra pointers there.

The DYD ebook is pretty basic stuff, but the advanced series is dynamite.
 

"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 may be oversteping my bounds but I wouldn't suggest telling people to do that. Many of the people who write these ebooks are patrons to this site.

A portion of the stuff is covered in the bible however the eBooks are set up a bit better as a learning mechanism more so than an information repository.

Think of comparing a school text book to an encyclopedia. The encyclopedia may have more information but you wouldn't read one from beginning to end, you would look up information on a specific topic.

I wouldn't be suprised if some of the authors put stuff up on p2p.

You get a chance to see SOME of their stuff, if it's any good you buy the stuff that you can't download.

Personally, although I rate DYD stuff highly, I parted with good money for the Michael Pilinski ebook and it's ideal for the type of newbies you get on here who whine about not having the balls to approach.

I've seen the Swinggcat stuff on p2p and that was ok too.

If I wrote a book, I'd invest in having it printed;)

I've bough a few of the cheaper ones

Dating Insider -- which I may have found via other sources than this site -- was a real eye-opener. Very good stuff about the importance of charisma. It explained just what was happening when I was "on." 5 stars.

Double Your Dating backfired when I tried to hard to force the ****y/funny thing and became a bit too much of a jerk for my own good. Best if you have the gift of gab. Otherwise OK if you de-emphasize the ****y/funny. Best to de-program guys who drive gals away with wuss behavior.

The best of all for me was Miike Pilinki's High Status Male ebook. It's very much in the Pook self-improvement vein. It gives good, practical info on how to make the matter of approaching women essentially a non-issue. 5 stars.

Swinggcat's articles look very good, too, but after the other stuff and this site, I thing a lot of his stuff would be going down paths I've already travelled.
 

"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.
