"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.

hi everyone, i'm a new member in your community. a friend told me about this place & i'm glad to be here, looking forward to learn from all of you guys.

i would really appreciate it if someone can point me in the right direction, like where to learn the terminology used here, the basic concepts accepted by most guys here, who are knowledgeable or experienced members, etc.

also, if a complete newbie such as myself has a current situation, yet i have not read/learned as much as i would need to figure things out myself, would it be ok to ask questions that may seem simple to the more experienced guys ?
 

"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.

Welcome. You should read the DJ Bible. There's a link on the lower left of the page.

You're encouraged to ask questions, but be prepared for some "tough love" from some members. There are all kinds here... some are patient and some are tougher and more direct, but it's all in the name of helping men see the light.

thank you.
i already started reading some of the DJ bible, but it's a pretty long read & i've only been here like a couple of days, so i guess i'll post a thread with a question regarding a current situation.

just so you understand that each situation is unique. women change quite a bit, and so do men. i've known some pretty wild party girls who settled down just fine, became doting grandmas.

"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.
