"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.

Anyone here know some good sites for music theory, learning chords, all of that for guitar, piano, whatever. I've been playing a lot of guitar and have gotten pretty good, but now i need to start learning the names of all the chords, the theory behind them etc. Any help would be great, thanks.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Fry this site:

http://www.zentao.com/guitar/

It goes over everything from guitar anatomy to tabature to chords and ending up with actual music theory. All including lessons for every experience level.

Have fun!

I'm a music major, and good textbooks are Gouldin and Piston (use piano notation though, which is still a good practice also). Not sure about online resources but I've seen many good ones before. Knock yourself out.

Start with Peliminary Rudiments. Then move to Grade 1, then Grade 2, then Grade 3 Harmony, and so on and so forth (up to Grade 5).

I'm taking Grade 3 Harmony right now along wtih Grade 3 history.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
