"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.
Sometimes I Wish It was LEGAL To Punch a Girl in Her f*cking Jaw!

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Other than that, I think you just mad bro.
Keep it moving and try to adopt this attitude here: http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lho2pi25bG1qafrh6.jpg
Its currently how I feel about this thread.

That never works for me. When they see me coming, the resulting ahem ..."dampness" prevents ignition.5string said:

1. women view most guys they don't know as "creepy" or potential to be creepy, or be a rapist, or be a stalker, yet they have nothing to base this on other then "well I met this one creepy guy awhile back so I'm going to assume that all guys are this way". I'm sorry, but how many women have been in the news lately for KILLING THEIR CHILDREN? if they can assume most guys are creepy then it's fair for me to assume that most women will murder their own kids.
2. I love how single moms always preach "I have to do what's best for my child. I have to be picky in who I date or bring around my kid", the problem with that argument is they usually never go for th guy who's decent, has a job, has an education, doesn't have 7 other kids with 7 other women. instead they feel it's ok to date a guy that has no job, rides a moped, been in jail a few times, that's the role model they find suitable.
3. I hate women that are hot but date ugly guys. I don't know why I hate it but it just pisses me off. wtf are they thinking? are they blind? I consider myself a 7 but at least I have standards. you'll never see me with a fattie on my arm just because she has a nice personality. I also hate fit women who constantly date fat out of shape guys. what is that all about?
4. I hate how when you have a g/f it's ok for women to talk to you all the time, but if these same women are dating someone they can't talk to you because "that wouldn't be right". wtf is the difference? if I told this to a woman that was coming on to me and I had a g/f i'd be considered stuckup or full of myself.
5. I hate how women will drop off the face of the earth after a few dates if they arent interested, yet the harp about how important "honesty" and "being able to talk about your feelings" is important to them. they say they have no time for "games" and "childish b.s." but that's exactly what they do to you?
6. I hate how women can knock a guy that has a fetish(say like a foot fetish or thinks girls in heels is sexy) but I'm supposed to be down with their fetish of "pretending like you're raping me during sex". ummmm what? that's not weird but my turnons are? if women are so worried about guys they don't know raping them then where does this weird ass fetish come from? most of them have it to!
7. if you and I are dating and then you pop up out of the blue dating someone else and changing your relationship status on facebook, don't get mad when I delete you, delete your number, cut all contact with you and then you come ask the dumbass question of "why did you delete me? you're a jerk! why can't we be friends? you're so immature!". no, i'm not immature, I just think you are a ***** and can go fvck yourself.
8. i hate women that expect me to invest alot of money in a first date when i don't know if i'm going to get a second one or not. maybe you'll get your fancy dinner down the road, but you haven't done sh!t to deserve a trip to Mcdonald's yet so i don't know why they think they're entitled to it from the get go. if that's the case then i'm entitled to some ass, how about that?
9. I hate women that try to be like one of the guys. it's a turnoff. i think a woman that wears boots, tries to dress like a guy, wants to sit around and watch football and eat cheeto's with me and my friends is disgusting. you don't see me wanting to wear a dress, put on makeup and be one of the girls do you?
10. I hate hot women with fat friends.
There's my top 10 list so far.
"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.

You need a wingman like me, when I'm off my head on alcohol, I'll take a fattie for the team.Robert28 said:

"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.
