"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.

Great thread. After multiple thred on single moms, prostitues, and lay counts this feels like a breath of fresh air.
Indeed. I fully agree on that.
There is way too much unproductive "Facebook'ish type BS" posted here these days of low grade posts instead of people actually using their brains and posting useful information that helps guys grow to the better version of themselves.

Yes! Take a read. Game recognizes game, men. Good on ya. Pook's lessons are great. They're timeless and, IMO, have been foundations for this forum.

"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.

There it is. That is why the link is not working. "15" Vs. "Fifteen"? Someone changed it here at SS. It was always "15". So be it, AS. View attachment 10086

Lesson 1: “Rejection is better than Regret”
I always remember the first time I read these words. In my mind it was like "D@mn! So simple but it totally makes sense! I should remember these words every time Im hesitating about cold approach"

Lesson 2: "Friendship-Abondon all hope ye who enter!"
Totally There can be exceptions but exceptions make the rule. On general. genuine friendships between male and female do not exist

Lesson 3: "Judge by actions, not by words."
This is good and not only for dealing with girls. I think it can sometimes apply to work, friendships, relatives, etc.

Lesson 4: "Patience is the refined sense of confidence."
I did not remember this one. Maybe its about outcome indifference. Maybe its about frame.

Lesson 5: "Trust the gut."
Your gut is there for a reason. it will be right more than half the time.
