"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.

Just wondering if anyone has ever heard / seen this movie?? I just downloaded it like last week, it's actually pretty cool. Some interesting things in the movie too, like the main character "John", is a total "DJ". Social proof, he has multiple plate spinning, confidence, also has a ton of charm and some ****y and funny things he says as well. You would think the way he was acting he would be a complete AFC... But, i guess with the confidence mixed in it comes off in an amazing way... Seriously u should pick up the movie sometime. Let me know what else you guys have to say about this movie if you've seen it... post your thoughts.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

haven't seen it but this point is GOLD. You can heap compliments on a chick if its done in a non needy, confident fashion. The main problem with a "nice guy" is not the niceness but the lack of confidence and a sexual nature.

Amen to that!

That's probably why most of the guys who are always stuck in the friend zone are known as AFC! How they can fix this. Is finally getting laid, or if out of the game too long, get a friend close friends to hook you up, boost your confidence, and take it from there.

I figured it would only be a matter of time before someone brought up that movie here.

Yeah, I saw it. I particularly enjoyed how the guy was DJ'ing and how the movie, disguised as a chick flick, blatently slammed women for being conniving and diabolical b!tches that play ridiculous games and employ obnoxious schemes. And, for all their meddling, the guy always came out as a DJ, or even more of a DJ. All their messing around backfired.

When I had to see it, I was initially thinking: "Aww crap. Here we go with another man-bashing high-school chick movie." I was pleasantly suprised. I could've done without the sappy "love" plotline, but all-in-all, it wasn't as bad as I expected.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I was gonna post on this. Good thing I always do a search first eh?.....

I'm watching it right now, and he is entirely AFC

*spoilers*

-I mean, calling girls 5 times in a row.
-Circling houses
-appearing needy and try-hard.

We have to remember its just a movie. I used to get so screwed watching these fictional mack-characters on t.v....

However, he does have a lot of good characteristics, in particular his Confidence.

So, this is very much possible, but only b/c he was the captain of the team, had flawless looks, was majorly pre-selected, and was the top of the social ladder. So the coolest guy in the school buys a girl a heap of flowers :flowers: she would be flattered. But if the average Joe does it, it comes off as needy.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
