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.
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
I saw a shirt yesterday on a guy and it had a screw, nut, and bolt on the front and on the back it said...KontrollerX said:Huskybear instead of embracing the Ted Bundy view of women why not embrace the Tom Leykis view and that is...
Don't get into a relationship, don't get married.
Just pump em and dump em or create a bull pen where you call a fvck buddy up when you need your sexual needs fulfilled and if she is busy that day you just call up another one.
This is kind of a deviation of Rollo's plate theory but it may be exactly what you need.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
you have got to be kidding me. What sort of whiney self indulgent crap is that? If you want boss get a fat wife! Stop acting like some mopey teen emo fag. christ man. that's pathetic. Man the **** up, get some prozac, watch american beauty a million times or do something. take charge of your life. Tired of being the leader? Are you fraking kidding me? I don't believe you ever where a leader talking like this.huskybear said:I started this depressing thread and I want to end it.
Since reading these posts--I have been dumped by a girl I cared for a lot last week who found someone younger, stable and more richer. IM happy for her. Im sure she is exstatic and they have wonderful sex every night and IM jealous as and it hurts like hell. But I am just a memory to her. Then last year i see my exgirlfriend kissing another man who I was still in love with. I CANT LET GO. ITS SO DAMN HARD. Is it a control thing? Do I have control issues? HOW DOES A GUY LET GO AFTER A BREAKUP? Its sad that a person can just...coldly end it with you. No rhyme or reason. Then give her love to someone else. Then I hear the words from my friends and family...MOVE ON. Moving on....is a cold way of saying get a life. Meet another girl. Whats the point of meeting another girl??? I may get dumped again or I may dump her and hurt her. Whats the point to all this--we all die anyway.
Maybe ted bundy had the answers to all females. He probably rationalized women are wh*res. They are not to be trusted. He probably thought women lie worse than men. He knew women can leave you anytime they see fit and meet another man in a heartbeat and there is nothing you can do about it. So Bundy took the high road and probably DIDNT CARE EITHER. IN essence, 100 years from now none of this is going to matter----ok, this is sounding psycho so I will stop my rant.
To sum up, I have lost several potential girlfriends these last few years who I could have easily dated or married but they just got up and left---even when I was spinning plates! It has definitely scarred me. Many called me a player. The problem is...what woman can I trust in the future? This is why I date many and not one girl. What if i meet another great girl next month and that ends? I get tired of moving on! I dont like hurting women either. I have been spinning so many plates all these years. I get tired of spinning plates. I want to settle down and get married. I dont want to be the leader anymore. I get tired of being an alpha male. Sometimes I want someone to tell me what to do! I should join the army--I would love to have a drill sergeant bark orders at me. I want someone to tell me when I can tie my shoe laces and when I can go to the bathroom. I wish women would tell me what to do. I want to be the follower since I have been the leader for 40+ years of my life and im sick of it. I have been doing that my whole life.
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 guess your the opposite of a lot of guys here. Well find you a nice girl and settle down. Retire from the game.huskybear said:warrior74 hehheahea.....yea im tired of "manning the f*ck the up." I've been a teacher, a drill instructor, a sales manager, a hotel manager, a bartender, and a limo driver. I BURNED OUT ON BEING A BABYSITTER! Im tired of babysitting women? does anyone agree with me? I get tired of telling people and women what to do. I want someone else to take the chains. I want to sit back and relax and enjoy it. I want someone to massage my back and cook me dinner and when to tell me to go to bed and when to do yardwork.
I've been doing "leadership" work for frikken + 40 years and im sick of it. I want a girl to rub my feet at home and yell at me when Im bad. I kind of get turned on chicks who are bossy towards me.
When I was 25 I had a girlfriend who was bossy as hell. She always told me to come to bed NOW! and turn off the damn tv!...and I went to bed with her. Its was comforting to know she loved me and expected me to be with her. I always knew she would never leave. Its strange. She wanted me by her side 24/7 and i actually enjoyed it. We broke up cause I had to move to florida and she didnt want to. I had to finish my college education. I wish after all these years i would have stayed with her.
The problem is not that you are a 40 yr old man. The problem is that you are a 40 yr old LOSER! You don't have your life together. You don't seem to have a proper career or anything to show for yourself in life. From your posts it seems that you have been jumping from one odd job to another. You are not established. THAT is your problem. You are 40 year olds, you look 28, but you ACT 20! You sound emotionally immature and quite frankly, pathetic.huskybear said:I am 40 yr old guy(I look young--say around 28 and I act ten years younger)..but thats not what concerns me. Lately I have been feeling insecure about my age.
Nowadays, women dont want me as much. I am starting to the hear the comments "your too old for me" or "eww, your like 40?" Or "Oh my god!! You are 40??? You look like your 28 years old!" I hear these comments especially from women in their late 20's or early 30's. Its depressing when you are rejected because of your age AND NOT your looks. It s*cks because my sex drive is as high now as it was in my early 20's but back then I had a different girl every weekend to take care of my needs. Now I don't have jacksh*t.
Im middle-aged man trapped in a 28 yr old body. I dislike growing old but I try to look at it positively. .
This sums it up as far as I am concerned.MrLuvr said:The problem is not that you are a 40 yr old man. The problem is that you are a 40 yr old LOSER! You don't have your life together.

The women are not rejecting you because you are 40. They are rejecting you because they are not attracted to you. They are using your age as an excuse to get rid of you. There is no way that a 40 year old man is TOO OLD for your target age range which seems to be women in their late 20s and early 30s. With their best years behind them, these women are DESPERATE to hook a man and settle down. And you are striking out with them? First fix your life.. then worry about the women.
Perhaps there is a clue to your dilemma in this list of "careers" .huskybear said:I've been a teacher, a drill instructor, a sales manager, a hotel manager, a bartender, and a limo driver. I BURNED OUT ON BEING A BABYSITTER!
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.
Tom is most certainly not an idiot.huskybear said:Tom Leykis is an idiot. It's entertainment...don't believe everything you hear on the radio. If leykis could make millions by telling men to shower women with gifts, he'd be saying that. It's all about the entertainment value and being a shock jock and getting paid. Listening to him will NOT get you laid

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.
I used to freeze the second a beautiful woman looked my way. Frustrated. Awkward. Watching other guys walk away with the girl while I stood there tongue-tied.
Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.
These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.
