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.
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.
What's your count?Mindgamez said:BPH, yes I did!
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.
Still feel annoying when being disturbed cell phone calls? Don’t want this bad thing to happen again and again in your life and work? Ok, do not be anxious, the cell phone jammer can be your first and best selection. And if you want to know more about this kind of device, you can gain the useful information you want.NorwegianDJ said:Dude, THIS IS AMAZING! Great props to you for actually doing this. Remember that the goal is to approach, that's what matters.
When a girl is older, I might alter my own age, as I can go for being older than I am. I rarely do street approaches, I just do social circle game and approaches at parties. At parties you can easily weed out the girls that are up for action and those that are not. It can be fcking terrifying, but that's whats amazing; you evolve so much. Just keep trying new things, and start simple. Be consistent.
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.
And then I understood how being "successful" socially at school won't necessarily bring you happiness, that everyone has to go through ups and downs, that not every very confident guy out there is a douche-bag or every hot girl out there with a b1tch barrier."I’m still unsure of what the future holds for me, but I’m beginning to figure myself out.
I never had it hard like most kids. I've always taken part in sports and extra curricular activities, my family loves me, I have many friends (of course, I can only truly count on a few), I get invited to parties and events, I don't try nearly as hard as I could in school yet I still get pretty solid grades. I even have a longtime girlfriend who keeps me happy and grounded and is smoking! (Bonus)
I guess when I look at it in the grand scheme of things, I've got a really great life. But of course, if you take a closer look, you’ll see that I have really big lows to match those really big highs. Unfortunately, some people look into my life and get the impression that everything about me is absolutely wonderful so they sometimes judge me or pity themselves - and that hurts me.
I may have a lot to show off and be proud of (which I am), but I live a very modest lifestyle and I never like to make myself seem "greater" than other people. I recognize how lucky I am and I wish people wouldn't judge me and assume I'm a "douche" or "idiot" based on my appearance. I drive a semi-fancy car that I worked hard for, and sometimes I dress like a bum (hey, it's Abbott and I like to watch YouTube late at night.. even if it means screwing myself over the next morning).
In high school, I saw people get picked on without hesitation. In CEGEP, I don't see bullying as much but I know it still happens and it isn't hard to spot people who are emotionally damaged in the halls. On the Internet, it's the same story; everyone holds back and is afraid of criticism.
It's easy to say to someone, "Hey, be yourself!" but it's hard to do that when you don't even like yourself. As I've grown older, I have started to like myself and because of it I'm slowly finding motivation in my life. I only wish other people could see the potential that lies within them as well. It's in ALL of you. EACH of you truly is SPECIAL. I may have had it easier than most, but I’ve had my falls and many of the people I hold dear to my heart go through extremely rough times so believe me, I get it. Don’t let pain or criticism get in your way of finding yourself. They don’t belong with you and you shouldn’t carry either of them around.
Because I am remaining anonymous, you'll never know who I am but I want you to know that I BELIEVE in you. To everyone who has a void in their heart or feels alone, remember to stay positive. I know what you're thinking. "Stay positive… For what?" We're all so young and there is so much to explore in this world! Although you might think there is nothing more for you to see, people to meet, or feelings to feel, you are WRONG! You simply cannot give up on yourself and you must believe that times will get better! Let your curiosity thrive and allow yourself to be free!
Don't let others judge you. Please. If someone doesn't give you the attention you deserve, find someone who will. I promise you, somebody will. As for the past, let go of it and break down the walls you had put up after bad experiences. Expose yourself. You might still get hurt, much like you do now, only this time you'll be true to yourself and you'll have that to hold you up.
It's time to realize that words carry a lot of weight, so cut the hate! Everything you say has value so be mindful and remember that you might be hurting somebody in order to make yourself "look cool." If you ever see someone who is alone, reach out to them!
Everybody needs everybody.
I know this is a long post so chances are you're reading through it quickly. Remember what I've said though, don't just hit "like" or move on. Of course, people might comment a bunch of trash but that's alright - everyone's got an opinion.
Just be sure to help one another. Let’s make our school a better place to be and make everyone feel accepted. Pass the love forward and remember that the best way to make yourself smile is to make somebody else smile!
I’m going to be annoying and share a song that I’ve been listening to lately that might have meaning for someone:
Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
(or)
Against the Grain by City and Colour
I know a suitable song is sometimes all you need when you’re down. If that helped at least one person, then I’m happy. If not, then I’m embarrassed.
As a side note,
I'm sorry this went from a secret about how I get sad even though I have a lot to be happy about into something much bigger. I guess I got carried away when I thought about all the pain I see in other people and how they let their fear of criticism dictate their life. That saddens me the most. Please don't let that happen. Be you.
Here’s another secret for fun: I spend most of my hard-earned money at the Munchbox because I’m too lazy to make myself a lunch. What a foolish way to live, no?"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
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.
