"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'm thinking of adding a few items to my wardrobe, but I'd like to check out other stores. Where do you guys usually shop?
 

"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.

"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.

What kinda stuff Fred Segal has? Have one not too far from me but never visited.

Shop at A|X, H&M (finally got one here in LA), gym clothes at Target, Express, Macy's/Bloomingdales/Nordstrom.

Go outlet shopping during summer, freakin nice discounts and soooo many great shops.

Fred Segal is kinda pricy. I usually get T-shirts or Polos and stuff...go to the one in Santa Monica....hottest women in all of LA are there either working or shopping.......they have a wide array of different designers....its pricy though but the clothes look good...selection can't be beat though

also go to other stores to buy stuff...i like surf shops and smaller stores. I try to avoid the mall stores whenever possible...like the Banana Republic, express, blah blah blah....honestly, the kirkland signature shirts at costco are way better quality, look the same and are 1/2 the price.

I actually do most of my clothes shopping when I go to vegas....either that or south coast plaza in the OC. I like this store called Ted Baker..they have cool shirts.

Santa Monica eh? The one closer to me is on Melrose. But **** I'll have to check that one out :) Sounds like a store I'd like.

About BR, I didn't realize how expensive it can get until I went shopping there last weekend, ended up buying just a t-shirt. Their clothing is good though.

actually banana republic's clothes are horribly cheap. Bloomingdales is good...

The Melrose Fred Segal is actually the more "happenin'" store....the Santa Monica one is more laid back...depends on what your style is and what you want...a lot of the clothes are made for malnourished japanese men though....

I really like the Adidas original store across the street from there for track jackets.

I'm a saks guy for the most part. I buy the vast majority of my clothes from online stores because of the variety, but when I go shopping around town, saks i the only store I will even walk into
 

"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.

"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.

Merc on Carnaby Street is my all-time favorite shop, period. I like UNIQLO too.
