"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

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.

fellas, long time no post. hope you all getting ripped.

not living on campus this summer, so no free gym :(

but there is a stadium here, where i moved, so i started to run. i still do the push ups. ok, so arms, back, legs (unweighted squats), and stamina are checked. abs is the last variable to solve the "being ripped" equation.

i have been doing crunches, sit-ups, leg-ups. i have been increasing the reps in my sets. it has become boring. plus now, there is my nephew in the room.

can you guys recommend a tool that help? basically i need something that focus on quality and not quantity. i have seen those ab straps. do they work? what about ab wheels? anything else?

thanks a lot in advance.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I don't like the ab wheels, they hurt my back and I never felt it in my abs. My only suggestion is to do variations of the crunch, maybe V-ups or something, or bicycle crunches. Just google it. Hanging leg raises if you're not doing them. I'll you need is a bar. There is no magic formula, I like to stick to the basics. Just because you're bored with something doesn't mean you shouldn't be doing it.

thanks for the reply speed dawg. i know i should not give up. there is another reason. but once i get in my own room again on campus, i would be able to do these 1 hour abs sessions. i will take your suggestion: no ab wheel. maybe i should look into getting an ab strap.

I have both an ab wheel and hanging ab straps.

The ab straps actually work pretty well, but the wheel is not nearly as effective.
