"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.

After my self esteem was boosted by about 250%, I came to 'realize who I was' and became a lot more confident, outgoing, and talkative around people. I also enjoy the process of getting more female friends and using them as a leverage to know more girls. Although people frequently complement me about my good looks, I've never been in a relationship or been exactly successful with girls- comes to show how truly important don juan skills are.
I have a new question here. Several girls who know me better have told me that I need to be more gentle. "Girls like gentle guys," they say. Based on their impression, I'm the type of guy who can accidentally break anything I touch, including the female arm that I take when I get myself a dance partner. They say that I am 'macho', and believe that even if I try to be gentle, I'd still be unable to be that way.
I honestly have trouble comprehending this. I mean, people's told me this a while back and I think I'm changing myself into something a little more...careful, but... I don't know. I'm really confused here. Someone help me out?
 

"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.

What I define as gentle is opening a door for a woman, pull out her cher when you out for diner, walking at the outside of a sidewalk, opening her car door, etc..

But I wouldn't change for what girls say, they only gonna turn you into a wuss..

They say they want gentle guys, but who ends up in bed with them? ;)
What woman say, want, think and do are 4 different things.

Gentle doesn't mean you are a pu$$y. It more runs the line of holding her properly, not moving too fast (smoothness), things like that.

Not the, I'll barely touch your hand and I'll hold you like I don't have any muscles gentle :crackup:
 

"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.
