"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.

Really? Surprised you guys don’t recommend jogging

the running groups have some of the hottest women. I’ve never been much of a runner but may join running groups because some of the women in them have stellar bodies

not necessarily to try picking them up but because they’re doing something right if they have great bodies, physic

when I go to the gym I’m not as into women with big muscle builds lol I like women petite and skinny
most people who run are already not-fat. in my estimation, your weight is 95% determined by your diet.

personally i'm not going to do something i detest just to meet women. jogging is a deplorable activity.
 

"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.

Actually that's not true.

Many are skinny fat. It would be more accurate to say most people who run have low levels of lean muscle.

whats your basis for avoiding poly unsaturated fats? are you going off vibes?
Majorly seeds and seed oils. Mustard oil, soybean oil, or anything with palm oil (rare but yes). Majority of seeds or seed based product out there have PUFAs. I like fruits, and for oil I consume coconut oil, which is indeed a fruit (called drupe).
I read and look deeply into Ray Peat. Likewise, I have been on it for more than a month.
Are there any changes? Yes, my weight is back to 69 from 71. I sleep better, and inflammation has been reduced.

i think palm oil is OK. not sure if i would call it healthy, but its nowhere near as bad as canola or soybean oil.

i know palm oil is still high in PUFAs, but its not a processed oil, its as simple to extract as olive oil, and as far as i'm aware part of the reason seed oils are so bad for you aren't just the high PUFA content but all the oxidation that occurs from the insane amount of chemical processing they undergo. i mean there's like 8 steps to extract canola oil from the rapeseed and its heated to hundreds of degrees which causes heavy heavy oxidation.

Actually that's not true.

skinny fat, sure. more accurately what i mean to say is, there are 20000% less obese runners than skinny or skinny fat runners. the only point i'm making is jogging is a horrendously bad way to lose weight.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

If you cut off a limb that's 20 lbs in 2 minutes. The Black Knight method works every time.
