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.
Hold on there kid - we are not advocating that you put a girl in a bag - that is a little extreme. no?? She may suffocate - then what good is she to you then!!pgbiswas79 said:
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 american humor kid!pgbiswas79 said:
rofl, leave the poor guy alone.
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.
You arent half bad, but your style is way too metro for me. And Id definately get rid of that necklace - perhaps destroy it in some sort of fire.jlr12584 said:
na, generally speaking you're fine, if a little too obsessed with your appearance. 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.
I totally agree.The Juan and only said:
Sure not the cliché "traditional" Indian girl, but a "true" Indian girl who grew up in India until high school (sure educated in private westernized schools, but located in India nonetheless) and came to the US for college. I mean girls are really the ultimate deciders when push comes to shove, why bother asking a dude what he thinks of you. I mean it's not like you're going to be dating anyone of the same sex are you?:nervous: I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed.
