"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.

Hey,

When you just want a casual relationship with a girl, nothing serious, do you make this clear verbally off your own back? I tend not to talk about it unless they bring it up (which doesn't seem to happen in my experience), but the last 3 girls I've been with have kind of assumed that we are "going out" even when I haven't verbally given them any hint of it. So when I eventually break off contact they treat it as if we are spliting up, when in my view there is nothing to split up from.

I do tend to be quite affectionate even if I just want the relationship to be casual, I tend to "cuddle up" a lot and don't really act differently to being in a serious relationship, apart from having less contact and being more aloof. Maybe this gives them the impression?

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

If you don't want the relationship to progress to the next level:

Don't call more than once a week.
Make sure she knows you are dating other people.
Don't talk about the future.

OR

After you bang her stop talking to her.

Do you "cuddle up" with dudes? Think about it.

I don't have an answer but I have the same problem. I'm pretty affectionate as well and I agree that it does give them the impression that I'm into a long-term relationship.

It doesn't mean that. It's true that I'll only cuddle with a girl I care about, but I don't have to care about her THAT much, if you know what I mean.
 

"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.

That cuddling up thing gives them the impression you care in a hurry. Most guys dont do that, they arent used to it, so they think you must really really like them. Myself, i love playing with a girls body and "cuddling up" as you put it. I also know that by doing those things, i'll be getting laid quickly. Its got me into more than one conversation, way early into dating a girl, that stemmed from them thinking how much i must really like them because i "cuddle up". If that makes sense
