Master Don Juan
Seems like a person I met the other day claimed the mega millions. Sadly his wife is making him donate it to the town where he bought it. What would you do in that situation?
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
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.

Do you mean something like a railroad? Or a nice road?Vice said:Foolish wife. Bureaucrats wouldn't know how to properly appropriate that money. What the hell does the town have to do with the winning ticket? If she has such a hard on for that silly fax-philanthropy, he can invest the money within the town on income producing assets.
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.
Real estate with a non-profit renting the building. That way the wife gets her warm and fuzzies, and they're not throwing away Fortuna's gift.vantagepoint said:Do you mean something like a railroad? Or a nice road?
For this we should wait until the next natural disaster. Something like the earthquake that lasted 4 months in the mid west.Vice said:Real estate with a non-profit renting the building. That way the wife gets her warm and fuzzies, and they're not throwing away Fortuna's gift.
