"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.

okay, this is a continuation of the encounter that i listed in my previous thread.

http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?t=224475&page=2

so i ended up texting her back couple days later, breaking the protocol so to speak. but she did agree to meet up.

it was at another bar, the vibe was way less exciting than the previous meet, my contribution being that i was so darn tired that day. basically i was an asexual bore. meaning i had no desire to initiate anything and was just sullen throughout the meet.

the bar's about to close so i ask if she wants to go to another spot, and get told that she has to go home. that's that, i thought.

but then right before we part, she suggests that i join her and her friends at a dinner couple days later, telling me that she'll call. i was pretty sure i was friendzoned then.

she didn't call for the dinner, but for a drinking event almost a week later, with the same friends. since i figured i was friendzoned, i was able to act as casual as possible without the pressure to impress her, and we actually had a good laugh.

before we part she tells me that she wants me to come check out her work at her gallery couple days later. now my sensors lit up then because i'm suddenly being invited to the woman's place.

i sent a song on fb the next day just for the sake of sharing. (that's how we interfaced initially)

then texted her 'wanna hang out' 4 days later, got the excuse that she was hung over.

initiated fb conversation 10 days after that and when she asked what i was up to that day i asked again to 'hang out' and got turned down once more.

saw that her loc was changed to a different country 5 days later so i asked about that and was told that she hoped to see me before she departs.

that's all the communication i had with her since the last meet a month ago. obviously nothing's coming out of this but i wonder

-if i should've been more enthusiastic by calling her to chat and whatnot instead of short bursts of text and

-whether if texting her after the last meet was already too much.

in retrospect, i'm thinking, since we already had three 'dates' (more like meets, actually) i should've warmed up to communicating with her in more friendly pattern.

how much of this was in my control? or is it simply just low interest level going cold? i figured by third meet we were simply becoming plutonic friends but if so we would have 'hung out' at least once within the month that has followed.
 

"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.

Always have your head right when you go out on a date. Especially the first few, which are the most important.

Your problem, by the sound of things, was failing to escalate physically.

yeah no kino. but the third meet went so well!...

and what's with the cryptic messages such as 'hope to see you again' and also she swiped me on tinder-esque app (asian version of tinder. yes, we're expats here) which was what got the last conversation started.

she implies that she wants to meet yet turns down my offers.

is this so called 'orbiter management'?
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Read my texting guide if you want more insight. I already told you what you did wrong.

Short bursts of text are fine. That's not the problem. The problem is you fvcked up in person. I wouldn't call it orbiter management just yet. Push for a date asap, and do it properly. If that fails, go nc and find other girls.
