You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
He won't, unfortunately. I've given him some gold in a few posts and he doesn't even acknowledge those posts when I hit too close to home.Tell him to buy a weight bench, Smasher, he'll listen to you.
Maybe.
How do have a home gym without a weight bench?
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
I've removed rows and back of neck presses from my workouts, due to some neck pain I've developed in recent months. Probably age related, but I don't want to exacerbate it. Still doing bent over rows and barbell presses though.
The OP got a ton of good advice, but still insists that he wants "muscles by summer".
You can skip the expensive cars, the fancy clothes, and the endless gym selfies. Completely unnecessary.

How does the Army and Marines get you bulked up in just a few months?
They don't.
Mashed potatoes.
Pull ups.
What about abs? Need tight abs to post pics on old.
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.
Diet & cardio.
I do cardio and have flat abs but I want 6 pack to post selfies on old of my abs.
Not a bad idea. Similar threads before about this. Even photoshopping yourself into photos around good looking women to show social status as well has been suggested.

I see meat heads who have the big arms and chest (lots of times ugly face) BUT have very weak, skinny legs and do no leg workouts or cardio. I thought women like those meat heads because I see them type with decent women sometimes. Tends to be younger women too.
I used to watch that show, Hardcore Pawn. That owner guy would talk a lot of sh!t when he had his big security guards around. The Jerry Springer of pawn shows.
If i had his money I would have no problem getting women.
