"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.

So I had a breakfast appointment with a girl this morning. In hindsight, this was pretty dumb, as I rarely eat breakfast because I get up so late (11pm or so).

Anyway, I stayed up until 7am goofing off with some friends, and we were gonna meet at the dining hall at 9:30. Predictably, I didn't get up in time >_>

I sent her a few texts asking to reschedule later that day, and another couple later + called her phone, but no response at all (maybe overkill on the reparations/apology front). I kinda feel like a ****; I've been flaked on/stood up, and it doesn't feel good. Doing it to someone else really drove this home for me, I feel pretty bad >_>.

We were kind of friends/acquaintances (somewhere in between), and it's not as though she was my dream girl or I was insanely attracted to her (which, in self-reflection, is probably why I couldn't get up. Reverse Brad-Pitt test - if I had a date with Megan Fox/Emma Watson, would I have overslept? Hell no), but it still hurts.

Crap I feel like an *******...any advice or anything guys?
 

"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.

Best thing you could do imo was send her ONE text:

I'm really sorry I let you down, I still want to meetup with you though, but I'd understand if you don't.

1) Don't do breakfast dates, WTF.
2) Send her one text.
3) Don't feel so guilty it happens. I've flaked on girls and if they into you enough they do sometimes reschedule.
