"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.

Got a girls number while doing photography at a club Friday night. We danced and made out a little. She's 35, I'm 25. I texted her today. This is the transcript of our convo...

Me: Hey Jill, it's Kevin from Friday night.
Me: I was going through my pics, and stumble upon this...i had to share it.(attached was a pic of her)
Her: Hahaaaa! Feelin it for sure ;) thanks for sharin. How ya doin?
Me: I'm doing very well. How about you, still hungover from Friday?
Her: I'm great! Was def feelin it yesterday but I'm back. Did u have fun at the show? I remember sliding around on that floor tryin to dance.
Her: Do u have an artist page for ur work?
Me: Yea I had a lot fun. We tore up the dance floor...well I did. You kept trying to copy my moves but kept slipping.
Me: I don't have a personal page, but my company does.

Did i blow it? And if so what was the wrong move? Any advice on wht my next move should be?(when to text her, what to say, etc.)
 

"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.

Not a good first text^

Always assume she remembers you. But it didnt harm you because shes still into from the texts.

Im assuming she didnt respond to your last text? If thats the case wait a few days and text her to make plans for a date....no more bullsh1tting around about work. You can talk to her all about it WHEN YOU PHYSICALLY ON THE DATE. Just say something like "Hey I got a recommendation for this one restaurant. Its sounds cool, what night are you free this week?" Or a simple "What night are you free to get drinks this week?"

Thanks for the feedback. If we don't help each other, we'll never get better.

Would it have been better if I just said. "Hey Jill, it's Kevin."? She didn't have my number, so I feel like I would've had to state my name. Should I not have?

I don't really know why you think you "blew it". You haven't really done anything (good or bad).

Saying, "Hey it's Kevin from Friday night." really isn't worse than saying "Hey it's Kevin." Not a big deal. Not even close.

Everything about your conversation is fine. I see no major flaws. The only thing it's lacking is where you get to the point and ask her to meet you for drinks. You don't want to spent hours texting back and forth with some girl you barely know. All you gotta say is, "How's your week looking? Let's meet up for drinks after one of my photography sessions. Wednesday or Thurs."


You're throwing around words like "Did i blow it?" and I'm like....this guy didnt even freakin do anything. There's nothing to blow. Even if this girl never responds again, it just means she's not interested. It's not because you blew it.

I didnt mean it like that. Ice nailed it when he says it doesnt really matter. I just prefer to assume shes going to remember me. Ill comment on something that happened the night i met her.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

Thanks for the wise words guys. I have a tendency to over think things. Will let you know what happens.
