"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Is my dental health....my teeth are literally decaying left and right. Have had to have several pulled toward the back, which just sucks.

Few things are more intimidating than the sound of that drill and getting a tooth pulled. The people in the old days begore miden dentistry must have really suffered when their teeth went bad.

I'm guessing it's the combo of all the sugar I put in my coffee throughout the day and the binge drinking in the weekends.

Tried oil pulling even, an alternative dental health plan. Not too much luck.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Oil Pulling would take months and year and if you keep drinking it would be ineffective don't you think? When you take a health approach you got to be damn near all in. You can't oil pull then have coffee everyday, or go out and drink.

Eat more grass fed butter, heard brushing your teeth with organic coconut oil is good to, almonds ETC research and give it time...

Don't think I could live without my daily coffee. One thing I'm extremely addicted to.

"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.

Some people just have teeth that decay easily. I have a stomach chronic issue that is known for affecting the teeth. A few years ago I dropped many thousands of dollars on some new choppers (not dentures) and it was worth it. I took impeccable care of my teeth in early adulthood and still they would go bad one after another.

Sounds like a few nightmares I've had. It's enough to scare me into advanced tooth care.

Going to try and stop drinking and putting so much sugar in my coffee.... That appears to be the biggest culprit, especially the drinking based on what I've read.

Genetics has a say in this as well. I drink a quart+ of coffee a day, snack on mints and other sweets. I just went to the dentist for the first time in 20 years back in January. Yep, I had some plaque that needed removed, but other than that, my teeth are almost perfect, not one cavity. (Damn, I sound like a toothpaste ad here.) Also, some medications can affect your teeth as well.

I love coffee too and see it as a pleasure.

However, I don't drink more than two cups per day and I've practically quit putting sugar into
it. The first time you taste it without sugar..........not so good. But then if you're buying and drinking
really decent coffee, you'll find that you can really appreciate the taste of the coffee. Now if I have decent
coffee, I'd feel as if I'm ruining it by putting sugar into it....
