"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.

Acne on the back of my neck!

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

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.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

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.
