"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Wow, to say the least, I have been getting my as-s kicked but i'm rolling with it and still trying.

My girlfriend of about 5 months had another guy on the side, and told me about it, that was the end of that. She was a super hot blonde, super cute.

Then I started going out with this brunette because she was a super chill girl. Not as cute as the previous one, but still pretty cute. So after like a month she stopped answering my calls just out of the blue, I find out she is going out with some geek ass dude, and didn't even tell me.

Wow, i feel like i've been punched in the chest two times, but i'm ok now guys.

So then one of my brothers gf's friends comes over, I rarely crush on girls, but this one is a super cool girl. Of course she puts me directly in the friend circle, and I have no chance of escaping that.

So, lately i'm feeling like i'm batting .000

So I call up some girls that I used to work with to meetup at a concert later tonight. I'm thinking positive.

I've got a new outlook on things. I'm not worried about her interest level. All I want to do is meet some girls and do some things, and stuff will happen. I'm far from desperate.

To quote a dashboard confessional tune (uh oh)

"I am fairly agile
I can bend and not break
Or I can break and take it with a smile
And I am so resilient
I recover quickly
I'll convince you soon that I am fine "
 

"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.

Sounds like you're trying pretty hard to convince yourself that you are "fine." This wouldn't at all be necessary if you had your priorities in order.

Women seem to have too much of a prominent role in your life, your attitudes, and how you view your status as a man. If these past few rejections truly didn't bother you, there would be no need to come here and tell everyone it didn't bother you-- because you wouldn't care!

He's right JH6.

Broads come and go; try to just focus on improving yourself in the best way that you can. You really can't control what a girl is going to do, so you shouldn't let it bother you when they pull some stunt. The most important thing is to know that you did what you think was best.
