"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 went to watch a show with this female friend of mine who is 23. We were getting to the place and she was "leading us" saying where to turn, which street to take, etc.. We argued a bit about which way was faster, but ok.

She wanted to sit really close to the stage, I didn't mind, but I did not have the urge to sit that close, so we sat where she wanted.

When it finished, we went to grab a bite. We were walking down the street and she suggested another route cause it was a "shortcut", I declined. After a few minutes she suggested another "shortcut", started to complain so I agreed.

Then we saw some restaurant and I suggested to sit there but she said she did not like that type of food, so we kept walking. In the end we agreed to sit in another place that we both liked, after she rejected a few more options...

Later on, when we had to go home, I was not totally sure which way to take so she suggested one, I checked it on my phone and I said that we should take a different one. She complained and insisted that she was right. I started to get nervous cause I was not sure. Anyway, I said: "we're going this way", she complained again but she followed me.
In the end I confused some street with another one, but we got to my car anyway.

On the way back, she had to question if we were going the right route eventhough I was damn sure cause I go that way everyday...


So, my question is, should I lead all the time? In this case I got annoyed because she wanted to lead us all the time. Other women just follow my lead and do not complain.

I have to point that she is just my friend, no plate, no sex, just friendship.

P.S.
I think I am too flexible, you know? cause I do not really care were to sit, or if we take this street or the other one which takes us 30 seconds less.
 

"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.

i think your reading too far into it

that whole date just sounds full of pointless bickering

enforce the decisions that actually matter , leave her fuss over the ones that do not

If this woman is your friend, practice leading women when you're out with her. She sounds like a control freak. So as you do better with her, dealing with other women should be easy.

They telling her 'I got this' when she starts pushing. But make sure that you do 'got this'. Leading implies know in what you are doing. I'd you lead and get lost, you are not leading.

I wouldn't worry about it either way. Sounds like she was having a bad evening or something, unless that's really her personality all the time.

But, it is a good question overall. I've known some real flakes that don't want you to do anything for them, want to control how things are done, then turn around and complain that you're not being assertive enough. On really minor, dumb crap too. Years ago I opened a door for this chick as we were on our way out to lunch, and you'd have thought I just took away their right to vote. 'I can open my own door, thank you very much.' My most recent ex objected to me paying when we went out, along with other stuff. They're nuts, the lot of them.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Glad she's your friend; would hate to see how she'd treat you if she weren't.

Could always say "you seem to be a pig headed bruit just like me. How about we settle this decision with a coin toss. Heads we go my way, tails we don't go yours". Joke about it then do a real coin toss and act on what it says.
 

"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.
