"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

"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.

Detroiter here.

I lean to arty/underground stuff (indie, garage, goth, etc. -- I check out a lot of shows), but can hang in more mainstream scenes, too.

Most of the gals I date tend to be 20somethings, though I'd like to meet more older gals, but there just aren't many unattached ones out there where I go. It's a younger crowd.

What are your usual venues, ddarkjedi?

Any good places to meet hotties who aren't kids?

let see here, I tend to go to the clubs during in the week or weekends in Pontiac like Tiki bob's, Have a nice day cafe, Tonic, Sevin Nightclub. I use to go to Clutch cargo, the girls act more b%$ichy there, besides most of the girls there are inmature 18 and 19 years in there. I also go to detroit sometimes, that much of a older crowd like X/S and Bleu, Pancea. (Space nightclub closed down. Heard it will relocate in Royal Oak) The drinks and cover charges are so high. I go there once in a while. I like the younger crowd like from 21-23 rather than 23 and up, even though I'm 28 years old. I'll be 29 in October. Royal Oak, Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor and in Ontario Windsor in Canada are cool too. I go to canada only if I don't to have to work the next following morning. If I go clubbing in Canada, I won't be in bed until dawn like 5 or 5:30 in the morining every time I go up there. I like to checkout other clubs that I haven't been to in the Southeastern Michigan area.

Some times I club solo, its better with a wingman though. I'm tend to be in a better mood to approach or pick up HBS in bars in nightclubs. How about yourself? Have you been to these clubs that I mentioned. Maybe we should hangout and meet up. I could use another wingman or too.

Word I get ...

is that the gals can go pretty wild a Tiki Bob's. Is this true?

I live in Detroit near downtown, and have usually been going to art openings and to see live bands at places in Detroit and Ferndale, such as Magic Stick, Magic Bag, St. Andrews, Lager House, and Small's. My fave club night has been The Big Sonic Heaven thing at 5th Ave in Royal Oak, but that has gotten a bit stale: same crowd, same music, etc.

I know of most of the places you mention, but have not gone to most of them. I can use a change of venue, because the scenes I've been hanging in have dried up to a large extent, and there's too much fallout from my chump days.

I'm older than you are, but look about the same age. Some people still guess my age at mid 20s, and it doesn't look weird when I'm out with 20something gals. But the gals in their early 20s aren't really LTR prospects, because the age issue is bound to come up. For a STR or ONS, no biggie. :D

I'll PM you with my info so we can check out some of the scenes.

yeah, the girls used to be pretty wild at tiki bob's on a Saturday night. I haven't gone there in while. It kinda died down though. I heard it is better to go during college night on Tuesdays. It's a more of a college crowd. You should check out club divine in Ypsilanti on a thursday night. It's crazy out there but it wil die out come September.l You should meet me up there Thursday night if you can make it. I'm planning on going there this week. I like to check out other places too that is a different crowd. Keep seening the same girls ever week.

I'm not much going to venues to see live bands that you mentioned in Detroit and ferndale. it kinda gets boring to me.

I'm trying other ways to meet some HB's such as the mall,bookstores,the gym, on the street, etc. It's really hard to do COLD APPROACHES

by the way, how old are you?
 

"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.

Your a little out of my normal range, but I'm not that far (<1 hr. drive) from either of you and I've been to a few places you mention. If you can manage a trip to Windsor, I've had some great DJing experiences over in Canada. Staying overnight might not be a bad idea, since I've had some good luck with the "Why drive home? You can crash at our hotel room!" bit. I had a real fun time at Magic Stick the only time I was there, but I wasn't looking for anything in the way of a PU, so you probably have a better feel for the area than I do. I met ALOT of very friendly HBs in both Royal Oak and Fernadale, though I can't remmeber exactly where I was either time:D
