"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

And the few girls who had found out have creamed their pants when I played some Beethoven for them on the piano. If you know where to look, classical has the best kind of music for all your DJ needs. Rach and Beethoven help get your blood pumping, Liszt to stop giving a **** (Liszt is usually pretty dark, makes you hate the world), while a slow Chopin (waltz, ballad) to get her in the mood.

Rock and rap are garbage compared to it. Plenty of AMOGs, including many on this site, denounce classical, but man is it powerful.
 

"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.

Someone posts this topic like once a per month in the OT forum, but anyhoo please give us a sample of the ideal classical music playlist to fit every different mood. I'm always looking for new music to play.

Musical talent of ANY kind is good stuff. Keep meaning to pick something up...
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

I find Chopin's Ballades work wonders, as well as his nocturnes for, as Flabbergasped said, getting girls in the mood Nocturnes a bit better for background than the Ballades, which get hectic at times. Yeah, and casually dropping in a Liszt etude doesn't hurt either!

Basically playing classical shows the girl you're not like everybody else, and have a good / classy taste. Classical sounds good to everyone, if it's loud, anyone can listen to classical... regardless of what they normally listen to. With classical you can't go wrong, while with other rap / rock she may not like / be disgusted, etc.

Here's a good playlist for a variety of moods.

If you're about to go sarging (I'll list the piece's title, composer, and a good recording):
-Gnomenreigen, Franz Liszt, Rachmaninoff or Horowitz
-Hungarian Rhapsody #2 (preferably the Horowitz arrangement), Franz Liszt, most recordings I've heard are decent
-Sonata Op. 27 No. 1 (Quasi una fantasia), Beethoven, Richter's is nice (if there's ever been headbanger music in classical, this one is it)
-Rachmaninoff's 3rd Piano Concerto (Movement 3), Rachmaninoff, Horowitz and only Horowitz (the entire concerto is awe-inspiring, but the 3rd movement especially gets the blood boiling. The first is probably the greatest single movement in any concerto, EVER)
-Scherzo #1, Chopin

To get the girl in the mood (remember, this will mostly be slow songs, and I won't recommend recordings cus I'm lazy XD):
-Liebestraum #3, Franz Liszt
-Any nocturne will work, but Op. 72 No. 1 in E minor is one of my favorites, Chopin
-Moonlight Sonata Mov. 1 or Fur Elise always work, since they're popular. Both are by Beethoven
-Intermezzo Op. 112 (I think it's 112, the A major one?), Brahms (I've never seen a girl NOT get teary after hearing this piece)
-Impromptu #3, Franz Schubert, very emotional.

When you're ready to screw (no, really, there's classical for this):
-Pathetique Sonata Mov. 1, Beethoven, this piece is very fast-paced, yet not harsh like the one's in the first section.
-Scherzo No. 4 in E major, Chopin.

Just a sample compilation. There's literally millions of works that are appropriate for any occasion, and I didn't even get into Mozart, Bach, and Haydn. If you want some Mozart, check out Sonata K.330, and for Bach, take a look at the Cminor Partita.

Bach, Brandenburg Concertos. They are the PERFECT music for spending a saturday with your girl. Makes you look sophisticated without being too snobby.

Mozart is excellent background music for dinner or wine.

Most of the Romantic composers (1800's to the 1900's basicly) are excellent for plowing some fertile fields. For dark moody sex, try some of the Requiems that compsers write.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I'd say it be kind of eery making love as the dies irea from Verdi's Requiem blasts from your stereo. It almost seems...profane!:D

Thread starter...I'm very into classical and actually have an active interest in learning the piano one day (after room opens up in my classes several semesters down the road and I can take that music theory course.) How long have you been playing piano? =D
