"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.

Been kind of flirting with an old ex lately, things ended on a sour note but she seems interested again.

Anyway, last night she called me around midnight. I picked up and said hello, heard some noise (music maybe?) in the background... and... she hangs up.

I figure the naturual thing to do would be to get back to her, so five minutes later I send her a text asking "did you call?". Here's where I'm totally confused, her text was, "Maybe".

I figure this is a good thing, even though it's probably a drunk dial, she is apparently thinking of me and possibly even intimitaded by me. Is it wrong to assume she's atleast somewhat interested or attracted?

I'm not sure how to take her text back, possibly as either flirtacious, playing dumb, or wanting to play games, but I really am not in the mood to be playing games with her again, so I just ignored the text and the call that night.

Did I do the right thing here?

"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.

In my opinion, as much as we want to go back to an ex, we really never should. Yes, I am being hypocritical. I have done it. More than once.

Iv never really understood why getting back with an ex is a big no no.


Like im talking about getting back with her just for fun every once in a while, not trying to fall in love with her again and have babies together.

because if the relationship failed once its probably not going to work out the second time.

Is that the answer to my question?

I dont know how you can hang out with an ex and not have feelings. Unless you really, in your heart, have moved on. Sounds to me like shes messin with you or checkin up on you in some way.
I think you did the right thing.
In my experience, I was in and out of a ltr for 8 years and she did very simalar things. Mine was a test( I think).
But what I kept doing wrong was falling for her traps everytime, I would let it keep me up at nite, I would call her back immediatly etc..and I would feed in to her games.

Agreed. Things would be alot easier if this girl wasn't so physically attractive. It definitely makes me want to rekindle things even though I know probably shouldn't.

Regardless, I'm guessing by her "phone call" that there's some interest here? Yes... no?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Who knows, maybe she holds onto your number as a last resort thing. In which case, you did the right thing...lol

Admittedly, there are still some feelings here, probably on both ends. I guess I want closure if nothing else.

I think it's very possible she was checking up on me. She definitely could be the type to do that, especially if she had some drinks in her. But who knows.

When you saw you think your ex was "testing" you, what do you mean?

I don't want to fall into any traps either.

Its funny, I was out last night and my Ex was at the bar with some other dude. I could care less because I broke it off 2 months ago. But it was funny because she kept gettin real close to this dude and other things and she would glance at me every now and then to see if I was looking. There was 3 girls sitting right next to her, I opened all 3 and had them all laughing and flirting within a minute. The Ex had this look on her face like her best friend just died. I dont hate her or anything I just figured her out and kicked her to the curb. But...Im still very much sexually attracted to her, but would never fvck her again.

Flirt wit hoodrats, then pop models.....Weezy
