She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
though perhaps unrealistic esp. for most gals.Throttle said:as someone who's lost a lot of bodyfat, kept if off, and is in the process of getting rid of the last of it, I would re-arrange the numbers and consider dropping a few. I believe that #5 is absolutely critical (though I disagree with the distribution of macronutrients), and #1 may be irrelevant. I disagree with #6 also -- anything that smacks of boring or deprivation is a recipe for failure.
#2-4 are in the proper order as far as I'm concerned.
I also believe it's natural to get about 40% of your calories from fat. There's too many carbs in the formula you've given. for me the key in #5 is to adopt principles of eating, not trying to count calories or macronutrient proportions. Eat real foods (in the US, that means shopping the perimeter of a supermarket and avoiding most of the interior), lose your fear of dietary fat, and avoid added sugars, esp. HFCS. Those three steps alone I think would do enough for most people to put them at a weight they can reasonably expect. With no added exercise (I know, that's heretical too).
Right now I'm in the midst of a self-debate over artificial sweeteners. I literally grew up with aspartame (Diet Coke is the family drink, as ridiculous as it sounds), and rely on it and sucralose more than I'd like. I'm not convinced of the scare-stuff (eg. aspartame causes everything), but I'm coming to conclude that anything that throws off your body's ability to judge calories by taste is bad for you. That said, I really like ON whey, low-sugar yogurt, and i'm still mildly addicted to diet sodas.
Oh -- and the photo attached to your article is hot
Anyone would lose fat with the 7 tips in the article, you'll agree. On number 6: I've been doing that for at least 5 years. Every day the same meal, weekends something different. Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
fixed. Thanks a lot spesmilitisspesmilitis said:
