"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.

Ive come to the point where advice are only useful short term as an inspiration and a reminder but long term success comes from myself. Having this thread up just makes me feel worse and that is the last thing I want to feel. Thanks to whoever read my post.

If there is anyone else out there felt like they've reached rock bottom. Feel free to PM and I'll be more than happy to share my story.

"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.

A universe...where heartbreak and sadness have bee
With what? Girls? Life?

You can't be out on the street, since you have regular Internet access, right?

If it's about women...it's not that serious. Honestly.

I concur with the above. Anytime I get down or frustrated about something (and especially if that something in any way relates to women), I am reminded about how blessed I am to live a relatively comfortable life, and how insignificant most of my worries are in the grand scheme of things.

It often takes an event like the earthquakes in Haiti for people like us to better appreciate how fortunate we are to live where we live and to have the advantages we enjoy. The mere fact that we have time to expend thought and energy on women "problems" speaks volumes about how fortunate we are.

This too shall pass.

Right now the people of Port au Prince, Haiti are at rock bottom. Keep your head up bro.

Interestingly though, our problems with women are directly connected to the privileged life we(and the women) enjoy....

Furthermore, I'd be willing to bet that many of the people currently struggling in Haiti...probably don't have nearly as much trouble getting laid as we do in "first-world" countries.

Just a thought...as long as the convo is going down this avenue.

What an annoying first post comment. Try some basic introductory information then tell us what is the matter. If you're running your life like your first post comments, I'm not at all surprised you're having difficulties.

It appears to me as though he removed the original post (edited it out). I never read the original post so I have no idea what it was he was saying. But it looks like he was embarassed about the original post so he removed it and replaced it with this note explaining why.
