"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.

This has proven to be a barrier to my decision to go out. I've put the lock-down on my finances of late. Even the cost of gas to goto the club or bar is proving to be not-worth-it if I'm not gonna pull, or bang a lady. There's no guarantee sure, but I try to get away with not having to pay a dime to get my pleasures satisfied. I won't be the fool and pay cover charges and drink the $4 beers as before! I intend to get laid this weekend with minimal sacrifices to my bankroll this weekend. Freebies are the best.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I guess that's one of the advantages to living right in the middle of the entertainment district. I get my drink on before I go out, take the elevator downstairs, have one at the club across the street, and stumble home a block away at 2am :)

This is a valid point. For some guys there's a lot of cost in going out. You risk a DUI. Just the gas might be $4, parking might be $8, cover $5+, drinks $4. By the time you had your first drink you're up to $21 and you might be drinking 4 or 5 more. It gets expensive going out every night. Now, of course you can lower these expenses and it's usually not that expensive on nights besides FRiday and Saturday, but it adds up. There's definitely a higher cost for men going out to get the girls. Besides the money and time costs, there's the DUI risk I mentioned, the hangover the next day, dealing with b!tchshields (I don't get these too much anymore), and dealing with random dudes trying to get your targets, and just the cost of dissapointment from going out, shelling out and striking out ;). Sure there's solutions to lower all these osts but they're not easy solutions.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Damn, try living in London :) To convert to dollars, typically looking at $7 a beer, $13 a ****tail, $8 a mixer/shot. If you miss the last subway home (which go at midnight, so most of the time you do) probably looking at $30 - $40 for a taxi home.

Everytime I go to Hollywood I end up spending at least $100.

It sucks so I don't do it very often.

I need to move lol.

But the weathers so nice and girls can dress skimpy all the time lol. Where I'm at (Midwest) it's cold there's several inches of snow on the ground. Hmm maybe Texas or Florida would be a good choice.
