"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

im a dumba$$, i was on a 2nd date with a girl, everything went perfect.. we eventually kissed at the end and for some reason i said to her after we kissed 'my mum would be so disappointed..' she goes 'why?' i go 'cos i keep missing class..' she goes: 'do u miss class a lot?' i go: 'not really but im always late..'

i duno why i say stupid stuff right at the end of dates.. i must have tourettes or something.. i get nervous when kiss closing i cant seem to switch my mouth off.. she looked angry after i said that and said she had to go cos she was late. clearly she took it as.. 'my mum wouldn't approve of me dating you..'

i coulda said something else but no.. f-ing idiot. am i better off not mentioning it when i call her in a few days? or should i say something?

i think i have to next her now after that mishap..
 

"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'd say both to be honest.. i say stupid stuff when im nervous.. my brain thinks of something and i just speak my mind. i need to think before i speak.. even as it was happening i was thinking this isn't a good idea to say this.. yet i still said it.

its happened so many times now that i just accept it rather than try to fix the problem. another example is when i no. close then try to date close a time and if she tells me to speak tomorrow or call tomorrow without giving me a def time i seem to keep trying to nail down a time cos i feel she'll flake otherwise.. this makes me look desperate yet i dont seem to stop. go figure.

also, i should mention this girl i saw isn't the same race as me so she would take it as 'my mum would not approve of me dating someone of your race..'
does your advice still count for in this situation?

I wouldn't worry too much about "nexting" her. I'm sure she'll do it for you.



Cheers!

well then shouldn't i explain myself?

when i said it i didn't mean for it to come out that way.. i was going to make a joke but then i realised halfway through it could be a contentious issue and at that point it was too late cos i already said it.. and trying to save it i said the wrong thing.

No, don't next. You have to learn how to turn these situations around and this will be good practice.

She has filed this incident away in her mental folder of reasons to dump you. But the fact you had a good date and kissed, she'll be ok.

Give her the weekend off and call her up monday and don't mention it. Just get her laughing and tease her a little and leave her hanging for more. That should reset your absolutely moronic moment.

Do you usually saw stupid stuff in any social situation where you are nervous? Or just with women?

The less you say the better. Remember that. Let her mind go off on it's own building you up into this fantasy guy.

Good job getter her that far, though. You can turn this around.
given that shes a different race to me and cos i said what i said would what u said still apply?

i feel like an explanation is needed.. although real men dont explain..
 

"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.

Dude was right, she did file it in the Reasons to Dump You folder that she will open up two weeks or two years from now and act like it happened yesterday. Give this incident no further influence by NOT SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. Do not explain.

And don't say things like "real men don't explain" unless you actually believe it.
