"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.

Don't worry abt testosterone, just keep in shape.

Worry abt diabetes, that's the killer.

I was once involved in a charity organisation that raised money for dialysis patients and for most the underlying cause was excessive sugar.
 

"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.

Let's not get sidetracked gents.

This is a really important topic, sugar intake.

You guys seriously need to check out those people with kidney failure.

Undergoing dialysis every alternate day for 4 hours each time is not only taxing but financially burdensome.

I've been taking no sugar coffee, tea, etc since then and it's been years now. It's an acquired taste the 1st few months but now if you were to ask me to take a sweetened coffee I'd won't be able to enjoy it as I've conditioned my body to reject it.

The trick gents is to do it slowly by using just plain milk as a substitute for sugar.

Then slowly ween urself from milk too (subjective).

I do as close to zero sugar as humanly possible. I make my own version of bullet proof coffee. MCT oil and some other fats to change up. Blend it up and it’s delicious.

Grains are effectively sugar. Borrow a blood tester from a diabetic. Get up in the morning and eat two slices of whole wheat toast. Nothing else. In 30 minutes prick your finger and do the test.

This is pretty simple stuff. Grains are converted to sugar almost immediately. But people will have trouble with it because it turns into an opiate and triggers opiate receptors. They are addicted to them. The romans would force occupied territories and countries into agriculture. This lowered their aggression (testosterone) and they could quell rebellions via agriculture.
The US adopted the same policy with native Americans. Namely the plains tribes. Move them away from the concentrated protein and nutrients of meat and force them to plant and grow food. It worked.

Sugar == estrogenic led to me halting even the minimal use.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
