"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.

Girl gave me her number... and I failed

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

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.

"We'll see" usually means no in women language, yet she told you her schedule.

Try calling her one more time in like 2 weeks. If she won't get together with you then, don't bother with her anymore.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

"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.

WTF are you doing calling at such an ungodly hour!? If you'd called me at that hour i'd pour a carton of milk on your head at the first possible opportunity!

to a chick that REEKS of desperation!

I had to register for this one.

Some people aren't paying attention to what's going on here.

You were gonna meet up with her, then called back drunk and said no. You brought up her ex and you said she told you to 'fvck off'. Then you were singing on her voicemail at 4 a.m. You managed to get her back on the phone the day after and apologized. She told you her schedule and said we'll see about drinks sometime.

This chick's giving you every chance she can.

I would pursue it.

You wrote that your initial problem is that when you drink, you'll say anything to get what you want. Unfortanetly for many drinkers, this is a reoccuring problem that they have absolutely no control over. They attempt to moderate drinking and fail miserably and their relationships suffer as a result over it. Even when they are their "better self" and sober, it does not take long before they go on another binge or drinking spree and then the damage occurs again and this time it is worse because it is a reoccurence of a problem they promised their friend/partner as well as themselves that they would fix. This is the first area of your life you could take a closer look at, because if it has in the past and continues in the present to affect your relationships then you may want to seek help from those who have been there in similar situations and can understand your problem for what it truly is.

As far as the relationship you are attempting to build with this girl is concerned, "sweet talking" and "saying what you think they want to hear" will come accross as superficial and it is insincere. Sometimes we sweet talk someone when we do not wish to be truly honest with them or ourselves about the mistakes we made.

Lastly, there is much to be gained by learning to accept people and their decisions that you cannot change because it will allow you to live anxiety, resentment and jealousy free. To do so in my opinion requires faith in a power greater than myself that I can accept there are some things things I cannot change and some things that I can that will take courage. When we are honest with ourselves, we can make true spiritual progress and our lives will reflect a better quality as a result of this progress if we are thorough and persistent.

another update:

I called this chick 2 more times (I was tipsy) and she didn't answer. About a half hour later I dialed from a friends phone just to see if she wasn't picking up before becuase it was me. Well, she didn't answer that time either. That's a good sign, she probably just wasn't around.

I'm gonna lay off for a week or two now and see what happens.

You are still worrying about what she is doing and thinking. Why she didn't answer her phone is not important. You are looking for justifications and excuses for her not taking your call. What has been more beneficial to me is learning to accept there are some things including the behaviors and decisions of others I cannot change and that there are some things I can take change including my responses to others which takes courage and thorough honesty with oneself.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
