"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.

Not opposed to it I guess, and I'd consider it a good sign if she wants to spend money on you, just wondering how you guys handle it? It's been happening quite often...three out of last four dates.

However, on other hand I guess I could be seen as cheap if I let them buy it on a first date, but its not like I am asking them to do it, they are offering.

Did have a situation occur where the woman said I'll buy it but you have to go get it...sh!t test?

Thoughts overall?
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I always buy the first round without hesitation...it usually happens on the second round when they offer, sometimes the 3rd...

I buy the first round and then expect them to at least offer to buy the second.

Don't see anything wrong with them offering to buy you a drink as long as you don't explicitly ask them to. They wouldn't offer buy a drink for someone they aren't interested in, plus it might help them get a little invested in you...
 

"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.

I don't think it matters that much in a situation like this, though I always pay... the cost of a drink isn't worth really worrying about one way or the other and while there is virtually no chance you turn a girl off by offering to pay, there's a chance (often a good one, depending on your frame/the girl/the situation/where you are geographically) you'll come off as a cheap bastard if you don't pay, so if the cost of the drink won't change your life, might as well pay.
