"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.

Im gonna get back Into this. I just looked at pictures again, and I suppose I DO look bigger. When i first looked at them I didnt think I looked any bigger really, what do you guys think?

Anyways that doesnt really matter, do you guys think I should start over and continue posting in this thread? Or make a new one?
 

"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.

Do you intend on responding to comments and questions posted in your thread this time?

Either way, don't start a new one...

No prob.

I need to get like a notebook for this like I had last time, and start posting my diet everyday. That was what made or break my performance. If I stopped posting everyday my diet wouldn't be on par.

Anyways, Yesterdays workout...

Friday, Oct 14

(Weight = NOT COUNTING BAR. Just the weight I put on the bar)

Squats: 0x10, 5x10, 10x10, 10x10, 15x10

Standing Military Press(will be abbreviated by SMP): 0x10, 5x10, 5x0, 5x8 (I probly should have done another set, but I was even sore after just the first set. I can't do much weight on these anymore. Can't wait to get that weight back up!)

CG Bench: 0x10, 5x10, 10x10, 15x10, 15x10

Knee Raise on Parallel Bar(will be abbreviated by KR): 0x20, 0x20, 0x20
 

"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.

It's monday and im still sore from friday, you think itl be ok to workout today?

Part of reason I did a 2 day split like this was for more rest time. Usually my soreness has gone away on a mon-fri period. but fri-mon is 1 less day.

Ok, worked out on tuesday instead. Forgot to post it earlier and I don't have the **** with me now so I'll post the weights tomorrow.

But I had a few questions.

(1) - I heard a crack in my knee when i was doing deadlifts. I also heard it doing squats on friday. Im not sure what this is from because ive NEVER heard a cracking noise when doing this before. I can't remember which knee it was on, but I did get a cut on my left knee from surfing a couple weeks ago. What do yall think?

(2) - Which direction is CHINUPS? When i was doing cg chinups.. i asked this guy and he said it was palms AWAY from you. But he didn't sound too sure. Which way is it?

1) no pain? don't worry.

2) palms towards you = chinups
palms away = pullups.

damn thats what i thought. I think i got a ****in injury from yesterday, ARGH!

It's the area on the bottom side of the arm between the lower and upper arm. Im guessing it was probly from Barbell curls. Even the bar with no weight was heavy, and for some dumbass reason I decided to add 5 lbs and only got 5 reps up. And now I think im injured. =/

so here's how my workout went:

Tuesday Oct 18
Weight=without bar

Deadlift: 0x10, 10x10, 20x10, 30x10
DB Bent Over Row: 10x10, 15x10, 20x10, 25x10

CG Pullup Bodyx7, Bodyx6, Bodyx4

BB Curl: 0x9, 5x5 <-- maybe I should just do DUMBBELL curls for now.?? Till I get my strength up.

DB Bench: 15x10, 20x10, 25x10, 30x10, 35x10

I think I have even more injuries...

I keep noticing when I go to sleep. That first night I felt the one around my forearm, and this past night I felt all on the back of my arm, like from the back of the shoulder to the tricep. I don't know how I got this but it hurts >:/
