"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've read DIESELs Guide To Bulking site and from what he says it should last no longer than 8 weeks or so, otherwise your body would be stressed out. Today was my first work out at the Gym and my trainer said it would require 6 months to bulk. He also recommended me to eat three times a day (unlike what this health forum implies)... Any advice? By the way, I'm 5 foot 9 weighing 147 pounds... how do I find my body fat %? Thanks.
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

Some people skip meals... For example one of my friends always skips breakfast because "it makes me feel hungryer if it eat breakfast"

3 meals a day is better than skipping a meal :)

Eat six times a day.

When DIESEL says 8 weeks, he says to cycle it in 8 week increments so that your body doesn't get super overloaded for a long time... you need to let your body rest for a week every 8 weeks and then continue your bulking. There's no SET time for how long it will take you to bulk, it all depends on how much weight you want to gain, but I'd recommend a week off every 8 weeks, don't even go to the gym that week... let your body recover.

i assume the trainer means that with hard work, people will genuinly say, wowee.. u've put on weight.. i've beeing going to gym seriously now for a month, people only say "you're looking bigger" if i flex for them..
by 6 months, i assume people will definently be able to notice the bulking i've done even whilst wearing clothes.
 

"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.

Like someone posted earlier, do your bulking in cycles. A 6-8 week bulking cycle is enough to produce noticible results. Take a week off after each cycle and restart the cycle again. You wont look like the hulk after your first bulking cycle, but you will have noticible results.
