Told regularly that I look a lot younger than my actual. Secret,if I have one is as above, I always wear sunscreen on my face all year round,and a good moisturiser at night. Drink 2 litres of water a day also. Makes a big difference. they say after 40 you get the face you deserve!
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

"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.

You're in the UK and wear sunscreen all year round?
This 99% convinces me that the claims on this forum of 'I look 10-15yrs younger because I wear sunscreen' are self delusions. Sun exposure is healthy and it's not just about vitamin D. This scaremongering about sun is ridiculous. If for instance you're born in Ireland and your ancestry is white and move to Egypt then yeah, take some sensible precautions (covering yourself in chemicals is not one of them) because your genetics and your current environment are mismatched, but if that's not the case, it doesn't make sense to see the sun as your enemy to be avoided at all costs.
You are,I think the word is "extrapolating" to much from what I have said. The sun is not my enemy at all. I agree its good for you,but,to much is not. Its not even opinion,its fact. I see people who work outside,even in the UK,and they are as red and rugged as face skin can be,and look older than their years. You can get "healthy" sunscreens,sans all the chemicals,and whilst not perfect,they provide a good barrier to aging sun rays. You do you,but il continue to do me and wear it,as im outside a lot and dont want to look like an old leather boot and this is what happens when you are out in the sun to long. Its a no brainer!You're in the UK and wear sunscreen all year round?

There isn't any point trying to convince people, end of the day it's their skin. If they ain't bothered about looking like ****e that's their choice.
I'm in the UK too I constantly throw on a bit of sunscreen and do a daily skincare.
I work outside, hobbies take me outside, I'm around and at sea a fair bit too. Literally in the elements in all conditions, my skin looks great.
Got some school friends that I've known forever. All (were) decent looking around the same level, I'm the only one out of the group who wears sunscreen, takes care of skin.
These days they all look like ****. Real ugly leathery skin, probably got to the point it's irreversible for them. Stopped trying to give them advise a years ago.
No point preaching what works, most people couldn't care less if they age badly or not.
Just got to respect that. You know what works, just keep doing you and age gracefully.

"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.
