"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

holy cow this girl told me i had the teddy bear look going for me... i guess that's just a nice way to telling me that i'm fat...

i had a very weird situation tonight. my buddy and i were kind of going after the same girl. they took a cab home together (not sure if they actually went home at all) but she gave me her number when i said that i wanted to take her out earlier in the night... this is the same girl who said i was a teddy bear. my buddy was grinding with her most of the night and he's a doctor, so i think he won the game.

this is weird when did i become so fat. i actually work out pretty often but eat like a **** head. i'm actually supposed to go out with this hot chick next week - i don't know what's going on.

back to the chick, do i even have a shot with her? i don't want know what my boy did with her. he's known as a really nice guy and man with no backbone, so i'm hoping to call her and take her out.

what do you guys think? your opinion would be very much appreciated....
 

"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.

Plenty of women like a bit of padding. ;)

(keep telling yourself that, Alex..)

Oh no, the dreaded teddy bear comment! I've heard that before in my past and it never boded well. :(

It's not necessarily all about your physical appearance. I learned that a lot of it was related to me being non-threatening, non-sexual and comfortable. The girls that used the teddy bear comment only ever saw me as a friend, but a friend who they wanted to cuddle and go places with. I always felt that these girls talked down to me too, and often used comments like "awww" in response to things I'd say.

A few tips that helped me overcome the teddy bear image...

1. Work out - aim for a good overall muscle structure and shape to your physique and ideally tone up a bit.
2. Dress and groom fashionably and a little edgy - no side or middle hair partings, no wooly jumpers or cute t-shirts etc.
3. Express your sexuality more - comment on hot women, make (subtle and inoffensive) sexual jokes and absolutely never shy away from sex talk.
4. Flirt - kino and verbally flirt more often.

Working out also makes you feel more bold and masculine, so that should help without any real conscious change to your behaviour.
 

"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.

I've ****ed a few girls who called me a "teddy bear". I think it's because I look intimidating and imposing, but my personality doesn't match the aesthetics.

Just respond with something about them still sleeping with teddy bears. I can't think of something exacly, because I'm drunk, but you know what I mean.
