"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 slept with this girl twice, and for me it was apparent that it's ****buddy or some form of OLTR. She was not sure, so she decided to ask me about that in a very covert girly way. She asked me "Are you jealous? Would you forgive cheating? I’m just interested in your personality." I'm going to use that line regularly.

P.S. I was so impressed that this 21 yo girl is smarter than 33 yo dude who even read couple of books about building open relationships.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Instead of "open" relationships do no relationship. In an "open" one they many times won't commit to you even in a "friend" way so it's a false sense of security. Just be FWB and leave it at that.

All women are "open" to open relationships when the right guy comes along. Regardless of current commitments, when the right man comes along those legs will "open" right up.

That's a very good point, OTH I want to check that she's getting my frame right. Maybe I'm just being nervous.

just don't get jealous if she gets more action than you lol
 

"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.

I'm curious about what you responded to those questions. Aiming for an open relationship I'd say "it's not cheating if it's agreed upon, also no reason for jealousy".

In a subtle way she basically asked "would you mind me fvcking other guys too?". I think she wants an open realtionship, but it can be somewhat taboo so she can't be direct about it. It could be turned back around to "not if you won't be jealous and would forgive cheating".

Disclaimer: I have no experience with open relationships, neither practical or theoretical (haven't read books about it).

In this particular situation it's obvious that there's nothing serious going on as she's living country in ~6 months. I answered her that "if there's no lying than there's no cheating." It feels that this girl has almost no sexual experience, and she claims that she haven't had sex for a year, because she didn't like dudes that were hitting on her. I think that she didn't want me to get feelings about her and becoming drama queen when she's gonna leave the country. I asked same question to her, and she told me that "she'll forgive cheating, but she doesn't want to see that", and I told her "OK, I will not show that to you" haha

It seems that being non exclusive is kinda natural for them and they are inclined to wait couple of months before getting exclusive. Just don't be jealous, be cool, and don't bring up the topic.

And add to the equation that I'm offering so much value: awesome sex, vast life experience [I'm much older and I've been through ****], knowledge, my passion for self-development. I can replace anyone of them, but they hardly can replace me.

Yes, jealousness is induced by fear of not getting P while she's having some D.
At least that's the case for me.

Ultimately, it's a weakness.

This is a ridiculous question for a man to ask.

OP is saying "I want to f*ck this girl but I just have so many other women who I'm f*cking that I need to announce it to the world".

It's also moot because any relationship is open until SHE asks the man for a commitment.

I'd say you're taking it a bit far saying it's kinda natural for them, especially given her response. What she communicates is that she doesn't like it, but given the circumstances that she's gonna leave the country soon she doesn't care too much. A few women truly do accept it, but the rest is somewhere else on the spectrum ranging from feeling slightly uncomfortable about it to absolutely not tolerating it.

It's not so much an open relationship as it is fvckbuddy, to have conveniently available sex until she leaves. Of course that's a mutual convenience, nothing wrong about that but I don't see where the word relationship fits into this mix.

But yeah, she doesn't take this seriously much and as you say neither should you. It's all good for the next 6 months.

Agreed, I meant that they like waiting for couple of months before becoming exclusive
