"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.

Alright, A friend of mine likes this girl, but she has a boyfriend (I know, I advised against it, but he pursued anyways.) Anyways, he hadn't seen her with her boyfriend in while so he pulled this little number;

Him: Hey, are you still going out with what's his name?
Her: Steven, yeah
Him: Damn
Her: Why?
Him: I totally have a crush on him, but I can't do anything 'till I get you out of the picture

I lol'd, he was wondering if he came of as too ghey. What do you guys think?
 

"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.

It's high school, so yes, people probably will think he's gay. It's a decent approach/random line, but used in day game or with friends/acquaintances, it can backfire.

Really lame.

At best, she might crack smile and did nothing to further things with her- at worst (and likely) it probably came off as just weird.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

That's either crossing the line or getting really, really close to it. Depends on how he said it. You can make homosexual jokes with your guyfriends, and it's close to the line but not crossing it. If your friend didn't know Steven, then it would be pretty gay. Imagine Steven if he heard that guy said it. If he was a big football guy, he'd probably play smeer the queer on that guy's face.

Actually, it's college, but whatever.
She did laugh. He told me he said it obviously sarcastically and smiled at after he said it.

oh, and I got it wrong, he said "I totally have a crush on him, but I can't do anything 'till I get you out of the picture, Why Else?"

And yes, he has met Steven before, but I'm not sure how well they know each other. I think it was pretty funny considering he made it clear that he was only kidding, but it really depends on how he said it.
 

"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.

lol, Yeah, my friend's a natural semi-DJ. Sometimes he comes up with good stuff and other times... well yeah.

If he said it the way I'm picturing it in my mind, I think it was pretty funny

Sounds weird. IMHO I would have said "I totally have a crush on YOU, but I can't do anything until he's out of the picture."

Vanessa: "Dad, I don't understand how it could have happened. I only left them alone for a minute."
Cliff: "Think what would have happened if you left them alone for a minute and a half"

Hmm, but if you do that wouldn't you might as well straight up tell her that you like her, which (as far as I know) is something you're not supposed to do.
