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.
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.
So what... if there WAS someone worth hooking up with on that trip, she would?T-Mack said:However, tomorrow she is leaving to go on a school camping trip with a bunch of people for a couple of weeks. Before we started hooking up she said she was definitely going to hook up with someone on this trip. Recently, now she says she will not hook up with anyone and says there is no one worth hooking up with on the trip, and that she likes me.
If you don't trust her, why are you with her? And what, you're going to believe her if she says she didn't hook up on that trip? You'd only be going on her WORD, and that means nothing. Like, what'll give you 100% confidence that she's telling the truth? You don't trust her now, what's going to change?She also says I guess you don’t trust me. I say no and tell her it is because you cheated on your last boyfriend. I tell her if you can make it back without hooking up on this trip, I will be able to trust you.
By now, you already have enough to go on.We have a lot of things in common and get along really great. The difference is the weed and lifestyle. I smoke occasionally and she smokes all the time. She also lives an overall unhealthy lifestyle, doesn’t eat well or workout that often.
You already know what to do.I have to admit I am bothered by her past history, some cheating and drugs involved. I am wondering is this worth pursuing or should I just break it off with her?

Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
