"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

How freaky do you think bb is gonna be in 20 years? In the 60's you would tell one of the pro guys that ppl inyected oil to make their arms look fuller & they would look at you like you were some kind of madman for saying that but pros now do crazier stuff.
Some of them are dying from heart or liver failure at age 45, which is obviously due to the tons of steroids they need to take to compite nowadays.
They have also been deaths do ammount of diuretics taken before contest.

Things I imagine are:
- Having a bag hanging from you at all times which gives you a constant supply of protein & other nutrients so you never go catabolic, maybe even replacing meals altogether.
- Even worst abuse of anabolic substances.
 

"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.

I've heard of a pill scientist are developing that is not too far off from being developed that would cause your body to put on muscle. Has anyone else heard of this? I think that will be a severe blow to BB. And also genetic manipulation will further more kill the sport of bodybuild making anyone into a superman. They'll be a certain point when it matters who has the best scientist than who works hardest in the gym. we'll be old and grey being fussy saying "i remember the old days when we used to actually have to work for muscle"

no..i doubt the future bodybuilders will look any bigger, look at people like ronnie coleman, ruhl and dorian yates, how the fukk can a human get more bigger than this? if you get more bigger than this your muscles will be just random mass with no difinition, it will be really discusting and unhuman..not to mention very dangerous.

Current bbs look unhuman. Ronnie it's a freaking monster.
Bodybuilding turned into a freak show around the middle 80's.
Lilredplaya: yeah, I posted it there too.

"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.

I will personally kill the ****ing scientists who make a pill like that

if they unlock that myostatin stuff, then there would be no point of me being a bodybuilder.

fat ****s will be able to look as good as us, without the hard work. it aint fair.
