"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.

I can see law 48 really applying to dating...the spontaneity, being formless and flexible so you're ready for anything, not having some 'game plan' or 'strategy' mapped out.

This sounds interesting, I'm gonna try and get an ebook version of the 48 laws of power as well as The Prince...Machiavelli was a real visionary of his time.
 

"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.

What is the new book? I read the Prince, and have 4 books of his (Seduction, Power, War and 50the Law, the latter regrettably as it is not worth it). I had predicted he'd write a book about the rules or survival or something.

50th Law was a kind of rehash of his other books, I didn´t like it either. Besides that, he read the book himself, which was boring as hell. I miss Don Leslie, this guy is a monster.

His new book:
http://www.amazon.com/Mastery-Rober...=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1341868042&sr=1-5

He´s doing it alone, so I think it will be a hit! :)

I never read the book, but as soon as I started reading these laws I thought immediately of Sun Tzu and Machiavelli, and lo and behold the first two people who were listed in the writeup about the book were those two...

I personally think people of yesteryears had much better social skills than we do today since they had no other activities to spend their time on such as these forums, facebooj, computer, television, etc...
 

"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.

Recently purchased this book off amazon, just finished chapter 1. Just wondering if anyone has actually applied these principles either in their business or social life and had success?

I own this book. I should reread it to get a better idea.
