"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.

"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 don't think it hurts to buy an engagement ring. But we need to get away from the huge expensive diamond part. In our culture today though, how do you do this? Let's move past the problem, and start finding the solution.

The value of diamonds is set by the near complete control of every fact of extraction to sale by one company.
Outside of the price they charge, of what value is a diamond?

Synthetic diamonds are interesting. They are valued at what they can get someone to pay. So the smallest stones are about a grand, but a giant one is like two grand.
At one point, fake diamonds were indistinguishable from real ones, after they figured out to include a few flacks of carbon so that it was not too perfect. Then DeBeers instituted a microscopic coding program for all diamonds. Every stone now has the equivalent of a serial number. That's the only way to tell a real one from a fake.
