"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

lmao, that goes perfectly with one of the worst pickup lines ever:
"Hey babe, want a whopper?"
 

"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.

Are ya gonna wear THESE BAD BOYS?

I'm going as a 30s/40s-style gangster. It's great, cuz it's a costume, but I'll also look awesome in it :), as opposed to dressing up as a giant can of pepsi or something. Probably 90% of everyone else who'll be dressed up as a gangster will be wearing the same crappy one-size-fits-all gangster costume they're selling around here. I'm wearing some good sh*t myself.

Re:

Going as a sailor, so I can tell all the lasses I've been out to "sea so long and haven't had a good woman since I cannot remember. I'm just in port for the night, so let's make it ALL RIGHT."

One idea is me and 7 buddies are all gonna buy some green sweatshirts and sweatpants, and tape some orange and red yarn all over them. Then we'll wrap ourselves in saran wrap, and together we will be an ounce! Either that or I'm gonna be Captain Morgan.

Costume party tonight and I dont know what I'm going to be! I might go as a mobster with black slacks,black shoes, a nice button down and slicked back hair with a cigar though, since I have all that right now so I wouldnt have to spend any money.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Ahh crap, cigar. The one thing I forgot. I'm not gonna feel like walking around with it in my mouth the whole time, though. Is/was it typical to carry cigars in the breast pocket of the jacket at all? At least that way it would be visible and I wouldn't have to hold it the whole time.

Are there and laws and whatnot about walking around halloween with a toy gun? I want to carry around a toy tommy gun....that would really complete the package.

btw, I'm gonna be on state street in Madison. :) That sh1t's always crazy.

Well I'm gonna be a disco guy from the 60's. With a big ass blonde fro, disco glasses, and some disco clothes. I'm thinking about painting myself black, but I dunno. Anyone know of any funny one liners that go well with a disco costume?
 

"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.
