"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.

I am always running late to work every morning. I skip breakfast about 90% of the time. Well, I'm trying to pack on a few pounds, so I'm looking for some "breakfast on the run" help

I was thinking about having a protein shake and a banana or some instant oatmeal for some carbs. I need to eat something with high protein/carbs to get me through the morning.

Anybody here in the same situation?

Thx
 

"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.

Wake up earlier. If you can't wake up earlier, go to bed earlier. If you can't do that then rethink your sleeping schedual (IE: do you have insomnia? If so, get it treated)

Make no excuses ;)
 

"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.

I dont know what you should eat in the morning to gain wieght, but from past experience and common knowledge, I would say to eat a big meal right before you go to bed, you probably already know this, but I'm saying it just in case you dont. Because anything you eat in the morning will be burned quickly by your body, unlike things eaten at night before bed.

I use to have the same problem. So, I started buying those pre-made sausage biscuits. But they are full of fat, etc...

So, I've made it a habit, one night a week, (Sundays for me) I either make bisuits or use english muffins and a bunch of egg white pucks. (pucks= get a muffin/cup cake pan and fill each hole with egg whites and cook in the oven til done. 15 min).

I cut open the biscuits (in half) and put the egg white pucks in the middle. Then put two biscuits per zip lock bag and freeze.

In the morning, I make my coffee and throw a biscuit in the microwave. Ready in 45 sec...

When I'm cutting, I don't eat bread. I buy the egg whites in a carton. When I get my coffee in the morning, I put some egg whites in a microwave bowl and cook for 1 min. By the time I'm ready to leave it's cooled. I either eat it on the way, or throw it in a zip lock bag and eat it at work.
