"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.

Do you guys like it or not? I just moved an old friend from friend zone to friends with benefits zone. She is beautiful looking (also smoking ass, super sense of style, lovely curly hair), but tall. I am 5'8 and she is 5'11. I never noticed it so much before except while kissing her tonight. I didn't feel as much on top of things as I usually feel because when we were standing I had to look up to look into her eyes. I am not terribly mad for this girl, but it seemed like an opportunity waiting to be cashed, so I cashed in. Anybody else have issues with women taller than themselves? It sucks for me because I find tall women extremely sexy, and I have this block that comes up when I am around them.

Update on the relationship I was considering... she was throwing a big tantrum about being exclusive and stuff (we have been dating only 2 months), I just let her blow off steam without offering any any answer at all. Two days later she writes saying she is happy with things as they are and is glad to give me my space. I love women.
 

"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.

Haha you are a happy guy!!!

I really do not have any problems with girls taller than me (I'm 6'1 and its rare to run into a girl taller than I.)

But...if a girl would judge you based on your height, she is shallow and would you even want to get close with a girl like that?

Just make sure you don't put her on a pedestal!

Good luck!

Never met one. At least never met an attractive one anyways.

Tall girls can fall for you fairly easily; the question is whether or not you fall for them. I prefer shorter girls, myself.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

i dated one. in 6th grade. lol i wouldn't be able to do it personally. being taller than her is just something i have in my back pocket that helps me be more dominant. (6'3"-6'4" :D)

A couple of girls have nexted me because I they are taller than me. One was 5'9" and the other one was about 5'5" (but she liked to wear heels)

With that said, it's the girl's problem, not yours.

and if you're wondering, yes I hate being a midget.

I'm 5'10", so there aren't a ton of girls taller than me, but there are definitely some. My favorite line to use on them is, "What I lack in height I make up for in length," accompanied by a wink

Cheesy? Yes. Successful? If executed properly, absolutely.

Usually girls don't go for shorter guys.

But nice work on the second part dude. Most guys would defend, commit, offer explanations. You played it perfect.
 

"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.

I'm about 5'6" and I've dated taller and shorter. Either way doesn't make a different to me.

I'm only 5'7" myself, the tallest girl I've ever dated was 6'1". Personally I prefer 'em shorter for most of the reasons stated above (easier to throw about the bedroom).
It's only really a big deal if you make it one, no pun intended.

I think some women get off on dating someone shorter than them. Especially if they are not used to it. They tend to be the more dominant, aggressive type of women though in my experience.
 

"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.

I'd find it a bit bizarre kissing a girl who is taller than you and having to look up to her! I don't even like women who are the same height as me. I like my women short, especially the petite Asian type for similar reasons to those listed above (you can pick 'em up and easy to manouver!)

Thats *really* lame. The fact you acknowledge it shows your insecurity.

Plus I'd rather be taller than have a bigger **** any day of the week.
