"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.

PUA video game. what do ya think?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

Oh no, please.

Heres what i think. This PUA videogame would be the perfect excuse for NOT going out and experimenting in the real world. I could see alot of very lonely guys thinking that, because they "own" at >insert name for videogame< their skills will transfer over into their real lives like a friend of mine who, although he is admitedly good at Halo, thinks because he is proficient at the sniper rifle in a VIDEOGAME he is qualified to be a a sniper here in what we call REALITY. In short - he is a prick.

Overall its a pretty silly idea.

sadly enough, there actually IS a pua game.... Somone posted a link to it a long time ago. I installed it out of curiosity and thought it was a neat concept but still pretty stupid. The last thing i want is to play a video game about picking up chicks.... I'd much rather get out in the real world. '

I can't remeber the name of that game, either... i uninstalled it shortly afterwards.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I remember playing Larry when I was 16 with my brothers. The 7th part one. We were stuck before the ending until we had to cheat and read how to do it on a website :D .

Now, the game is played outside ;) (if you know what I mean)
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

oh...since you put it that way...NO

A video game about picking up girls is gay. Do you have any idea how much of a loser that sounds...Next you'll be saying the blowup doll helps you practice and it is a substitute for lucid dreams, smh

Re:

Doddy that's a f*cking hilarious post!

I play Halo2 and have friends who are intense with it. BOY do they think video game skils are transferable. Thing is, you get good at video games because you can test and retest tricks with no consequences but RESTARTING. You can't retest a sniper theory in real life without losing your cranium. However, I've never met anyone who thinks they could be *elite* in the army just b/c they own a bunch of 15 year olds at halo. Moreover, what it takes to be great at in sniping in Halo/Halo 2 is by no means transferable in the real world.

In Halo/Halo 2, your ability to evade the bullet, jump, and snipe fast yields quick results. If you stay put, you get killed. In real life sniping, your ability to never be seen, never surface and pull the trigger without your mark ever knowing you did is crucial. A heat shot is good, but so is a heart shot.

Ha,

As stupid as it may sound, when I was in the army we would test out squad tactics by playing Desert Storm Conflict on XBOX ( I was always the black/indie guy with the radio haha). We would set it to 'realistic' mode and split the screen into 4 player mode. It was perfect to test out CQB and urban warfare strategies.

After playing it every night for 2 weeks, our squad wooped ass on the practise field.


And yeah, the US military also uses video games to train its commanders/soliders in basic squad tactitcs.

No.

A PUA Video game would involve having the programmers introduce set routines for you. That means, that unlike what multiplayer army games (without computer players) where each of you get to decide what to act and react, your PUA game would be 'if I always say "What ya dog like?", I will get a kiss from her'. There would be very little variation, and that makes it unrealistic and utterly a excuse for someone like yourself to sit on your ass all night long.

Get a life and go out into the real world.
 

"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.
