"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.

What is the music type what would a general DonJuan need to listen to? DJing, dance, :rock: techno, metal :rockon: , rap & hip-hop, trendy??? So many choices. Please don't everybody reply "listen just what suits you best" :trouble:
 

"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.

Electric polka. Girls' underwear flies right off when you bust out "Best of the Old Country: Electric Polka Jam Volume 4."

Please don't reply with "listen just what suits you best"? Oh why not? I love improper grammar.

Truth of the matter is, a DJ doesn't NEED to listen to any type of music. The wider your tastes, the more of a balance you have, and the more likely you are to enjoy yourself in any setting that involves music. Gives you a better impression with people in general as well, when you listen to basically anything.

I listen to Rap, Metal, Hard Rock, Classic Rock, Emo, Screamo, Oldies, Raggaeton, etc.

What I don't get is why you want to listen to music you may not even like

looool why would I listen to music I don't like!? You're kinda weird you know that? I didn't ask what music you listen to so I could be like you? I wanted to make a comparison?

If it makes you happy I listen metal, rock, soul and dance including turbo polka =)
Artists (in no particlar order) Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Seal, Elton John, J. S. Bach, W. A.

I play piano (classical, not rock academy) on which I can play things like Mozart aswell as Metallica's Nothing Else Matters, Doors' Riders on the Storms. I mix music using Traktor DJ Studio so I fvckin have my own style thank you for asking. As for the grammar I hope it's better. If it isn't than don't read it...

The reason why I ask what should a common DJ listen to (I realize it's just a question of style) is because whatever I say everybody wonders why. If I say I listen metal it's - oh just a common metal?. If it's classical they think I'm gay. If it's techno and dance - they think I'm just trendy. SO. Maybe I haven't stated my question good but that's no reason to think I wanna listen what you listen... I may be a newbie here but you're a bit too much pissed on everyone who asks a question... :rolleyes: Not that I'm gonna leave this forum like that guy something-x-henry did but you should cool down you know that?

******************

Now please (hope that "please" wasn't the problem) tell me what you listen to.


P.S.
I've edited the post because I found one little mistake. I wrote Chemical Brother instead of BrotherS. Don't want you to waste your nerves for nothing...
 

"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.

Lets just summarize this and say there is no universal music that makes you better at picking up women. I will admit, most of the hip-hop is popular in the club scenes and with many of the teen-age/early 20's girls.

Man, it's true that you just asked what a Don Juan is supposed to ask, you're right. However, what do you need that for? Maybe so that you could seem to be someone who "fits in" the DJ crowd? It doesn't work like that, man. If a girl asks what music you listen to, just tell her, simple as that.

Everybody answered like you asked what Don Juans listen to in order to listen to that... so maybe the problem was with your question, not with our answers.

I'll tell you what, AMOGing doesn't work like that. Mostly, because this is the internet, so we could care less about someone who tries to act above us and tell us to cool down.

If you really care, I mostly listen to your same music, but does that make me a Don Juan? I think nobody knows what Pook or Mistery or Style or Gunwitch or Anti-Dump listen to, but does this make them less Don Juanish to our eyes? I don't think so.

Any music with a positive vibe.

You don't have to listen a certain music. Just listen to something that you like.
I listen to hiphop, rock, punk rock, drum n bass, pop, oldie but goodie music, hard rock and some metal, RnB and Reggae. I'll listen to any genre, as long as it doesn't hurt my ears and the message is right.

I don't listen to EMO music for instance :p
 

"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.
