"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 really need a cheer up...

I really need a cheer me up, my life just went to hell in an instant. Turns out the college I attend ****ed up billing and I owe them around 1000 euros in 1 go, which I don't have.

I came back yesterday from the Sziget festival in Hungary, found a stack of bills. On top of that found out that I'm going to lose a substantial part of my income, which is the part that I used to save money off for vacations and travelling and partially to live from. So I probably won't be able to travel for a while AND really have to pay attention to how I spend my money and then to top it off, the girl I was dating and fell in love with, lied about a lot of things to me.

When I returned from a quick toilet break, I found her crying and shivering on the couch. After she fessed up a few things, I walked back to the my bathroom, got her hairbrush, took her shoes and dumped it all in front of her with the message to get the **** out of my house. Each and every time I see to lose myself into a girl, they turn out to either lie or do stuff that breaks my thrust in them.

So now I'm back to being in financial problems, heartbroken and no plates. Cold approaches really don't seem to work with Dutch people for some reason, because every time I try, I hardly get a response or a really short crappy conversation. Maybe I'm bad at it, but I've never actually had a good conversation from a cold approach.
 

"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.

Too many places at once
Here's a quote from a friend that got me through some tough times.

"Look on the bright side... at least you're not charged with 2nd degree murder"

Don't mean to make light of your suffering, but this was priceless >

I like to use a quote a buddy of mine told me that gets me through tough times:
"Work hard, be cool, the hardship is only temporary."

The way I interpret it, whether it be school or your job, work hard and be the good reliable employee/student. Be cool. While ur doing your work, be that uplifting fun guy to be around. And what ever struggles you are going through, its only temporary. The better times are ahead.

Sometimes stuff has to get worse to get better...about the girl...one thing i have learnt is that girls who lie aint worth it...so consider yourself lucky
 

"She's Out of Your League"

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.

Really! Things got a little more expensive this year and you can't vacation and you broke up with your girlfriend. Welcome to the real world.

Are you a girl who needs to vomit her emotions?

So you are 1000 EUR in debt, and you claim this causes your life to 'go to hell'

You really need to get some perspective.

At least you have a job, be grateful

You sound like quite the girl, "But now I have to cut back and won't be able to afford my designter clothes for a while!'


Your problem (or lackthereof) can be solved with this epic quote from Kobe Bryant: 'Just man the hell up, I don't see what the problem is.'

Hey, I'm new here. This is my very first post.

What I like to do when I get really down is watch a good ol' school action movie. A MAN action movie like The Expendables or Undisputed 3, not a GIRLY action movie like Resident Evil or Charlie's angels. Never watch GIRLY action movies. That will depress you more in my opinion.

When I watch an old school action movie, it always puts things into perspective and makes me say things like,"Holy crap! Jason Statham's girlfriend just left him for another guy who is now physically abusing her! And I thought my problems were bad!".

My point is, these old school action heroes have bigger problems than we do, and they take it like a man and deal with it like men do. It really makes our problems seem smaller.

Give it a try! Hope this cheers you up some.

PS: I am not telling people to resort to violence like these action heroes do, just take the bad times like they do.
