"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.

So I've been working on my health for the last year or two. Arms, bigger. Shoulders broader. Chest defined. Legs like tree trunks. Top and middle abs have definition and you can see the pack. Lower abs right above the pubic area is round and fat. Not hanging over, but not defined. A little fat on the sides, but a lot better than 1.5 years ago. I do 200+ sit-ups and leg raises ever other day. While it's helped the bottom part of the stomach is not defined. I eat a lot of protein and fruit. I've added in salads (I hate salad) and eat pretty clean and healthy. I also jog around 2 miles 4 - 5 times a week.

What am I missing?
 

"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.

Calories, how many per day? I have the best results when watching those calories. Too many, and they will go to your gut.

I track with MyFitPal, and I am shaving between 200 - 400 cals off a day.

Give it more time. As long as you are burning more than you are taking in (caloric deficit), you will see a shrinkage.
 

"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.

I'd like to suggest you to maintain a regular routine of life style like eating, sleeping and training timings.

You got to get to a crazy amount of low body fat and acquired muscle. The guys you see on posters or in movies are on what you call PEDs or GEAR. Its powerful drugs and combined with winning the genetic lottery. Keep at it man.

I've been doing HIIT and only eating from 8 - 7 five days a week. No change on lower stomach. The abs are there, but there is fat on top of it. You can see the abs from the sides, but the center is fat. WTF.
