"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.

So I need new polos, and I tried A+F today, and I was surprised by the relatively lousy fit. It was fitted around my upper body, but it was too loose around my mid-section. I don't know if it was an isolated incident or if their fits are generally the same, but I didn't approve.

So, where do you shop for good polos that are quality, and have a good athletic fit?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I have polos from Hollister, American Eagle, Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger.

The other day I was waiting for my friends to get to the mall, so I walked around a bit. I was near an Aeropostale so I decided to check inside. I saw some nice looking polos for $9. I thought they would be some shoddy t-shirts with collars, but I decided to try them on. They fit perfectly. I think I look great in them, and it seems like female attention rises when I wear them.

So check Aeropostale. Over here (New England) they're trying to get rid of all the summer-wear, so short sleeve polos are going cheap.

Oh, I got a good looking sweater for $15 too. And some $20 jeans.

American Apparel might be too slim for you, but they're nice. Check them out online or try them on in a shop (I'm sure you have one nearby as they're an LA company). www.americanapparel.com

Express = Stylish, more like dress to impress
Aeropostale = lay-back type of polos
American Eagle = colorful polos (not all combinations are good so be careful which one you pick!)

Aeropostale is the cheapest thou so for one polo at AE or Express you can get easily 2 at aeropostale maybe even 3

A tip for polos: don't go a buy a solid blue or black...get a color that get's the attention ie: orange, purple, green, etc
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Lacoste polos are the best in my experience.

The Express around here stopped stocking striped polos until January, but maybe the other local Expresses have them. I'll have to check, cuz I generally dig Express's fits (and clothing in general). American Eagle's fit was retarded (way too damn loose). I had an Aero polo rip for no reason two weeks after I bought it, so I'm wary of Aero.

Can't forget Merc, Ben Sherman and Fred Perry, the brands that made polos awesome. Fred Perry's releasing a new line of limited edition Paul Weller-designed shirts soon... can't wait.

Not that any of you care.

I could get 7 of my polos for one of yours.
Quality over quantity.
 

"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.
