Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

i have a question...

so i'm about to begin my bulking workout routine in about a week, along with diet as well. my current job is somewhat physical in nature (i work in a warehouse) and i'm constantly lifting boxes and such which range from 10lbs to 25lbs. my plan is to lift on days when i don't work (mon, wed, fri) and i realize that rest if a vital part of bulking, so my question is will my gains be greatly reduced since i'm burning calories at work? should i eat more calories to compensate? any advice is appreciated...
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Yes, if your goal is to bulk than you're going to need to compensate your diet for the calories burnt at work.

What juanjovi said.

In order to grow you need a calorie surplus. Eat a lot, eat calorie-dense foods like eggs and fats. If you don't see gains, either in the mirror or lifts, you know you're not eating enough, so eat some more.

Have fun. It's a challenge, but one you should and will relish.

I'd reduce the weight lifting to twice a week in your situation
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

The majority of people over train in addition to not knowing how to train correctly. This results in the CNS getting beat up and never getting a chance to recover, hence you never grow.

Some people can recover fast from workouts (small percent of lifters), while others take a lot longer. I can't say where you are, but if i had to guess i'd assume your in the majority (average to below average genetics (correct me if you have good genetics)). So assuming you didn't have a hard labor job and i was training you i'd still have you on a 2 day split. The job just adds more work on your central nervous system, so you have to becareful with training to much and not allowing time for recovery.

Nitpick:

Why would most people be in the average to below average category? Doesn't that defeat "average?"
