"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.

Acne on the back of my neck!

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

How old are you? Could just be a puberty thing (I got some good/bad acne back in the day).

Otherwise I usually use Neutrogena face astringent (it's an alcohol-based liquid that's blue and comes in a clear bottle). It's like $4 at walmart or walgreens or wherever - just get some cotton balls/pads, put some on there, and rub it one before you go to bed.

I think 20 rep squats cure most ailments.


KIDDING!


Have you tried witch hazel? My friend swears by it.

Don't scrub, that can irritate it and make it worse.
 

"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.

Benzoyl Peroxide 5%. Rub it in lightly(very lightly) and let it sit for a minute before cleaning it off. Use a moisturizer on it too. It could be an allergic reaction to the collar of something you have?

1. Wash it only twice a day, morning and night. Any more irritates the skin and takes away oils it needs to recover.

2. Use a Benzoyl Peroxide 5% product 1-2 times a day.

3. Moisturize immediately after using the cleanser.

4. Don't touch it, don't pick at it, and for gods sake don't scratch it. This is where self-discipline comes in.

5. Take zinc & magnesium supplements. Only 50mg of zinc a day. The magnesium is needed to absorb/synthesize the zinc to make it useable by your body. Zinc essentially helps your body control the production of 'sebum', which when overproduced causes acne.

It's that easy. Try it for 2 weeks. Acne can take acouple weeks to form, so you might not see results for that long.

Hope I could help.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Depending on how you get your haircut, some barbers aren't cleaning their clippers.

Some of the black males I know have them, but a few white guys get them as well.

Also, avoid using razors on your next. This could be a sign telling you something.
