"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.

Mine's pretty bad, the stupidest thing I've ever bought was some worthless hand creme from one of those booths in the middle of the mall.

Here's the scheme...some hot foreign babe runs up to you, grabs your hand, and says something like "OMG, your hands are so dry, here let me help you for free." Then she sensually rubs a bunch of different "exotic" lotions that will cure all your ailments, all while flirting with you big time.

Yeah, I ended up walking away a few dollars lighter and feeling like a total @sshole.

Actually though, the hand creme stuff does take off grease pretty well. So, I still use it after I've been working on my car or something...at least it wasn't a total loss.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Mr. Positive: While she was rubbing your hands and flirting you should have said:

HER: Oh wow, your girlfriend must love your HUGE hands.:)

YOU: I just finished jacking off and was actually on my way to the bathroom to go and wash my hands. Thank god you came along and did it for me.

I've had eye surgery to correct my vision...best thing I have EVER EVER EVER done. 7 years ago and my eyes are still 20/20, and this is coming from a guy that had horrible vision since I was 14. You have no idea, NO IDEA, how nice it is to be able to wake up and see! Or to not have these plastics things sitting on my eyes, having dust get under them, or have your eyes dry out. The thought of that is making my eyes water right now.

Without a doubt if you can afford it and your eye doctor says you are a person who can benefit from it...GET IT!!

:eek: ...hahahahaha. That would have been great. Just the look on her face would have been priceless.

The funny thing was she ended up giving me her phone number. Later, when I had my head on straight, I decided it would best not to call her.

Any chick that can sell stuff like that to AFC's (me included at the time) is bad news.

For me probably the Gamecube.

Aside from Resident Evil 4 and the last Zelda game for it this machine was a glorified dust collector.
Smash Bro's Melee and Mario Kart: Double Dash (N64 was better).

I just bought a 30gb Zune for $100. The price sold it, nothing to do with women, but I really don't need another mp3 player at all. Maybe I'll use the video capabilities, but I doubt it.

you do know they were giving them away for free on warez-bb.org right? I got one myself :)
 

"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.

I never did understand why people would buy football tickets to see college games of routes. Like Arkansas Playing Texas State or USC playing Idaho or something silly like that. talk about a waste of 150 bucks.

Oh yeah, although I didn't buy them, I have about $600 worth of dress pants that still have the tags from my birthday two years ago. I guess I just don't get to enough black tie events :(

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

"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.
