"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.

Did you know that it was only ten years ago that I was recommended to use a Mekur straight edge instead of standard Gillette razors? I haven't went back sense. So much cleaner and smoother. I've come to realize that all the stuff advertised to our society is mainly backed by feminine need and desire. Aka, our products are meant to be sold to the low iq consumers, aka kids, women, and the beaten down father. Recently, I've been running out of Axe cleaning supplies and realized what else am I using that's non optimal and maybe even dangerous to my body.

I'm looking for common day products to replace all the standard deodorants, soaps, shampoos, and anything else that you find at your common store. Either they are more natural or less toxic. Who knows how many carcinogens are in current products owned by the same five companies. I remember reading how Roman soldiers use to use olive oil to clean their skin. However, I'm not looking to go that primitive, but it's a good example of whether our current way is perverted or not. We don't even get many studies on that due to most articles being bought by said companies that promote your common household product.

Use this thread to give suggestions for me and others.
 

"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 Haley,
"Roman soldiers use to use olive oil to clean their skin".After a Shower,while the pores are open I have been massaging Olive Oil in to moistureise my skin for Donkeys Years,works well...Years back an Italian Lady friend confided the secret to her lustrous black hair,was to heat up her damphair in a hot damp towel Turban,then rub in a LITTLE Olive Oil cut with Petuli Oil.

I think they should make grocery stores, call hotlines, and wardrobe retails dedicated to Men of fine taste at a decent price. That would be a great way to meet friends too and avoid the chubby single moms with annoying babies crying all the time at the check out lines lol haha......lol just joking I love all sorts of people.

There are "natural" soaps and other personal cleaning products, for example Dr. Bronner's. I find them better than a lot of the mainstream chemical junk.

I find the self checkouts very useful at the grocery store. Rarely would there be much of a line for them and I have gotten pretty quick at scanning all the items.
