"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.

For my lord of the rings fanatics, what do you guys think of the hobbit series. I read the all the books when I was younger, but I'm starting to like the hobbit series more then the lord of the rings series.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Just seen the new one. I really like the two movies so far. I can not go as far as you though and say I like it better than the 3 LOTR movies.

Seeing Smaug come to life was worth waiting for, that dragon is badass. And his bass voice made the theater rumble.

smaug was just like I pictured him in the book, I guess I'm liking the hobbit more then the lotr films because this one just have one main focus, lord of the rings had too much going on at once.
 

"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.

The 2nd hobbit movie was geared to be 3d. 2d just won't cut it. The barrel ride was epic and so was the dragon. Gandolphs costume in the beginning made him look like he had too much makeup on though.

Overall. Very entertaining. Worth the see in the theatre in 3D

This story is probably one of the better ones told throughout history. Post bible of course.

I'd like to know why everyone likes these movies, when I read the books, I had a completely different universe imagined... I kinda wish george lucas had done the LOTR movies instead. I felt that Willow and Krull (different director) were closer to the worlds I imagined and more fast paced. Peter Jackson's movies seem to crawl along at a snail's pace. The only redeeming quality is Smeagle... otherwise I find the series almost completely unwatchable. This is supposed to be high fantasy, not a trip to the library.
