"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.

Me: 23, 5"10, 165lbs, around 17% bf. Used to go to the gym, now been out of shape for the last year. I got the whole diet thing down, but a few pointers would be good too.
Goals: increase stamina, lose fat

I'm planning on running at 5am, 5 days a week, 30 minutes every session (increase by 5 minutes every week). I'll be running in the street, so I can't know exactly how fast I'm running but probably have a good estimate. Also, I'll be keeping a log.

Does anyone know any good sites? recommendations? suggestions? personal experience?

"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.

Get started on cardio. Jogging running.. etc. Once you have some endurance and your body is used to the stress, and you shed off some of that 17% fat you can hit the weights.

First you have to do some cleanup.

Question: since I'm starting in the morning, would it be a good idea to start running on an empty stomach and then eating after I'm done?

I can't afford protein shakes in the time being (just for the record)

You don't need protein shakes to lose weight. Just eat protein based foods, lots of fats, some carbs, and stay away from sweets and sugars. Those you must control. No soda or any of that crap.

Mix this up with some exercise and you will feel like a million dollars in a couple of weeks. Although at the beginning you will feel like crap because you are not used to it.

Running in the morning before breakfast is not a problem, might gear you up for the rest of the day. Don't skip breakfast though! If you ever want to skip a meal make it dinner. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Lots of fats? like what? I thought I was supposed to avoid fat for the most part
