I'm looking for a good $20-$30 bottle of wine. I truthfully have no experience with wine whatsoever. I'm pretty much open to anything except Yellow Tail. I tried it once based on my friends recommendations, only to take 2 sips and sell the rest of the bottle to a friend. Any recommendations?
"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.

"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.

Nice move,
I always take a bottle of wine over a girls place, anything from Australia is good (Particuarly the Barossa) just go for something sweet, either a sav blanc or a ros'e should do the trick. Don't go with any of that french ****, it's overated and over priced. And yeah, don't go with yellow tail, that **** is the worst Aussie wine on the market.
Cheers!

"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.

This is precisely what an uneducated pallete would say. If it's just going to be you and her enjoying conversation I would suggest a good pinot gris/pinot grigio. It's easy on the throat and as a lighter aromatic than fvcking merlot.Obsidian said:
Pinot noir (and the respective family of pinot wines) are extremely versatile and will compliment cheeses as well as meat.

A nice Chianti. It goes very well with fava beans.

We're going out on the town in the city and I figured upon the return to the hotel room with some nice wine would be excellent.
Maybe champagne instead? Wine to me seems to go more with dinner than late-night fun.

"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.
