"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.

Hi! thanks for the previous responses to this situation... I'll give you an update of the situation that many people were helping me with...

Please know that I have been meeting other girls during this period too... even though I think I've shown some oneitis traits with this one...

Summary: I emailed her... she emailed back... I write back giving her my number... She then sends me a text me a couple days later saying "Hey! It's ___. sorry I didn't respond to your email, got caught up doing blah blah blah, clearly working hard :)", and I just gave a friendly but short reply (kind of pissed she didn't show much interest / write back my email.

This is where I messed up big time. After about a week from our text exchange (she didn't seem that interested, I was going to wait for her to write me or write her when I am going to be in her city in a few weeks)
By accident I sent her a text message that was suppost to be sent to another friend (nothing meaningful, just part of a normal conversation), so I wrote her again saying "sorry I just sent a msg by mistake. hey, is it fine if I give you a call at this number sometime?"

I haven't heard back (it's been 24 hours).... I'm assuming I next her and she's definately not interested... At least I got my answer instead of playing lame text messages back and forth...

What are your thoughts? Where did I go wrong? Was her interest level just never there? I know I should have probably jsut called right away. Thanks, again... Pretty disappointed by not hearing back from her.

Only thing I can think of is she thinks I'm a "player" trying to get tons of numbers because the only reason I texted her after a week is because I wrote her a text by mistake - so she's kind of insulted, which I think there is a slim to none chance of this.
 

"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.

There's really not enough going on between you and this girl to say if anything's right or wrong.

I wouldnt ask a girl via text for permission to call her. That's kinda weird. But overall, all I can tell is that this "relationship" existed entirely over the internet. Which means nothing.

So, to answer your "Where did I go wrong" question:

By overanalyzing a fairly meaningless situation. You got some girl's number over the internet, texted a few times, and nothing happened. There was no date, no sexual tension, no emotion whatsoever. Nothing here to analyze.

Iceberg - Here's the story with this girl - my original post:

"Had class with this girl for 2 weeks(now class is over). We worked together alot and she was really into me. One day I asked for her e-mail, she grabbed a pad and wrote it down and turned red and started stuttering, saying she checks it everyday. Only bad thing I did was I joked that I'd email her in a couple months (because we're both stupid busy till then- she knows that, but I wanted to try to point out my intention was personal in nature) "

I assume I forget about her for now? See if I hear back from her.

Um just grab your set of balls one day and call her? Keep it short well humored and most of all build up some fast rapport. Always best to cut if off when they're laughing real good/after some light teasing or you're running out of **** to say lol.

I always say things like "What's up sweetie?" "hun how have you been?" yadda yadda, get them talking about themselves, usually after 10 minutes you have to cut em off and be like "Yeah I've got to go do this or that, I'm probably not going to call you again." Then say "Just kidding. Maybe." :)

Why do people always overanayze stuff? " oh she didn't respond in 24 hours. Should I next her?" Be a man
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
