"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.

I see this book and it's various laws being parroted a lot on this forum. Although I was skeptical at first, I am halfway through this book now and finding it an incredibly useful tome. Definately the most amoral self-help book I've ever read, but just filled to the brim with truth.

What I'm curious about is if any of you guys have actually found instances in your life when you have put one of the laws into action and seen its results?
 

"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.

I like this book but at first I didn’t. I was a little upset that somebody was telling all my secrets! Most of the stuff in the book I do naturally. I never put it in terms like Greene does but… hey who does?

One thing I find very funny about this book is the fact: People that worship DA always say how great of a book it is, yet they down MM. This book backs up everything within MM. The same people say they like the book because it helps them live up to the DA standards. Since you have read most of the book you know that it completely does the opposite.

If anybody thought Mystery was conniving than they should read Greene’s books. Mystery would look like a saint in comparison.

I like all of Greene’s work and he tells it like it is. Upfront and true to nature.

I've put the boldness law into effect more than once for success.

The laws really work which is what makes this such a great book.

One of the best books ever written in fact I'd say.
 

“The 22 Rules That Turned Me From Invisible to Irresistible With Women… Starting Tonight”

You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

Then I discovered 22 simple rules that rewired my entire dating life. The anxiety vanished. Conversations flowed effortlessly. Women started chasing me for a change.

These rules trigger a woman's subconscious attraction switches. And you can start using them tonight.

I've always liked the first review on Amazon. Somebody clearly trying to use one of the laws!

i'll take it even father... If you read that, read "the prince" as well.. People give Robert Greene all this credit but all he did was rewrite the prince by Machiavelli

Absolutely! Prince is a must read, as well as 33 Strategies of War. I actually went to Barnes and Nobles 3 days ago and bought the paperback of, The 48 Laws of Power. Since I was sick of reading it from a computer screen! I love that book! It has so much GREAT information in it. It's also an entertaining book to read!
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
