"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.

My gf broke up with me today. Last week i got her a $1500 Gucci watch for her birthday. Then today she talks about how for the past few months she has not been into me, and that we need time apart because she needs time to think. What kind of crap is this? Should i get back the watch?
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Compare your feelings of her to the price and value of that watch.

Me being me? That much? Yes, I'd take it back. Regardless of my feelings of her.

WTF?

You can have a go at Othello's suggestion, but she has every right to keep it.

And read the DJ Bible.

damn, you gotta read the bible dude. NEVER buy a present that expensive, even if you are rich, and you are together for many years!!

well, but read the bible, the point will be that presents dont make any diference in the feelings in a relation, it will only make the girl feel more in control of you.
 

"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.

Yeah, unfortunately a gift is a gift and she 'should' be able to keep it. However it is interesting that she says that things haven't been right for months and you didn't pick up on that. Was the purpose of such a extravagant birthday gift to hopefully make things better?
