"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.

Would you break up over this?

Obviously there will be different opinions from women, but I heard this on the radio and wondered what other guys thought.

Guy calls in, and is trying to figure out what to do about his problem with his girlfriend. They have been dating for over a year, and here is the problem...

The guy says that when they are both in bed and asleep, that she is dreaming about an ex-boyfriend. The guys says that his woman is calling out his name in her dreams, and its more than once, and happens often.

Girl tells the radio people (while the boyfriend is on the phone too) that she has no idea it is even happening, and that she has no control over it. She says she doesn't even think of the guy at all.

So as a guy, you have to decide what to do. Do you break up with her because she cant quit? Will it go away like other dreams do? Most the time when I have dreams of the sort they go away.

I may notice this girl I work with, interact, and since she is one of the last people I see at night, and she interests me, sometimes they pop up in my dreams. In a non sexual way, but they are always around. But as time goes by I stop having them.

Its kind of like... WTF was that dream about? I have those on occasion where I have a dream about people I went to school with 12yrs ago. They come out of know where, never seen them since, never dated them, just knew them. They weren't on my mind, nor did I think about them. Just one night they were in a dream.

Now I know we cant control some of them, and at the same time too, they say that the last thing you think about before you go to bed, or is on your mind you may dream about. Yep, that girl at work last night was the last female I spoke too, and she was on my mind, and when I went to bed last night she ended up in a dream.

But my question is, as a guy... would you break up with your woman if she did what the one above did, or would you live with it and see if it went away? I'm sure every person is different, but at the same time it was a person in her life who she was with.

Must suck for the guy when he gets awaken by her mumbling an ex boyfriends name. Now I remember most of my dreams, and she says she doesn't recall. Maybe she is playing stupid, but who knows.

Personally, I think if it happened over and over, and NEVER stopped, i'd have to end the relationship. I dont know if therapy works or anything else, but if not, I dont think ANY GUY wants to hear a woman speaking some other dudes name in their sleep, ESPECIALLY if it is an ex.
 

"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.

and I have dreams about her as well....its part of life...its still fading....and even though i was emotionally over it back in the summer of 2003....it was like my best friend was gone..died..and gone.

thats hard to let go...exp for the sub-concious mind

It would probably bother me.

I'd of course talk to her about it.

But my answer: No. probably not.

You know, I had the same thing where I would have an ex pop in my dreams, and it was over a few years ago. I dont think I say her name when in bed or dreaming, but that's usually what is worse.

I'm sure many people dream about that stuff, and if you say nothing in your sleep, your ok. Its when you constantly say the name in your sleep that makes it hard. I'm sure none of us here would go... Hey babe, I had this dream about my ex last night. But when you say it, its kind of hard to hide it, unless the other person sleeps like a log and has no idea.

I guess the guy could tape her mouth shut, and then she still can breath through her nose, but he wont hear her say the dudes name with her mouth taped :up:

Too long... but if its regarding a girl and you have to ask opinion from somebody else, she is not the one... i.e. if she is, you would be discussion issues with her, and not about her "behind" her back... case closed...

the mistake that people make , and I see it all the time, espically here. They put more interest in the length of the relationship then they do on the relationship itself.

the first thing you see people say is "okay, me and my GF.. we've been dating for a year/6 months/3 years/whatever/since Jesus died on the cross"


however what you fail to realize is when a relationship goes bad, it's gone. regardless of how much time has been invested in it.

A relationship is not a mountain, that has a gradual slope downwards. if may seem that way if you aren't paying attention, however once a woman decides she doesn't want you anymore, in her mine, it's like jumping off a cliff

Yes. I think you should watch this (for those of you who said no)

Similar, no? Find someone new. Someone without issues.

Besides, if they get that attached that's a problem in itself.

But hey, maybe I'm just the jealous type.

Sounds like a great opener.

If I was the guy I would start moaning out some girls name just to mess with her.. Not just in bed, but in those quite moments of the conversation.

...or even a few girls names "oh angela..oh monic...yea sabrina..." (props to mambo # 5!)
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I wouldn't break up over that. However if the problem persists her ass needs to go sleep in another room, the bathroom, couch or whatever.
