"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Not strictly advice on working out but rather in a better mental state and working with what you have and what you can't fix.

I have seen this on numerous occasions. The guy is insecure and the majority of female posters don’t help but instead play into the insecurities more.

Some may respond with some patriotic spiel about how females are now becoming breadwinners in society (I picked this up from somewhere) and that they 'understand' how unhappy you are that you don’t have the body that 'women' prefer, whilst offering no actual solution to the individual. This potentially leaves the guy in a really bad mental and psychological state, bamboozled by this information.
Perhaps the internet is only good for some things.
I never often believed that women cared less about looks than men. It has been said they in fact come at it from a different angle to men and that's the key for me right there. Seeing a professional was my only option to battle with low self-esteem a while back.
 

"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 don't really know what you're talking about, so I'll just address the thread title.

Can a woman help you with body image issues? Only if you're a woman. If you're seeking help, it's best to seek help from people who have had similar experiences. You're a man, so talk to other men. Simple as that. Women can't teach you how to be a better man anymore than sheep can teach you how to be a better wolf.

Female posters on here respond to men on here the same way they would in real life. That's all I have to say about that part.

So, the short answer to your question is no, not really. It's very rare to find a female interested in helping a guy in that department.

In reply to the first, only women know what they really want, right?
I hear often about how dating books written by men are just to make money.

Only women know what they really want? That's gotta be a joke.

Ask a woman what she wants and she'll say, "A nice guy who makes me laugh, buys me flowers, and cuddles with me when I'm sad."

If you actually SAW who these women date, it would be a guy who pulls her hair when he f**ks her, toys with her emotions, contacts her once every 2 weeks, and leaves after he f**ks her.

You've been around this site too damn long to believe "only women know what they really want."

Women are only 50% honest with you and 25% honest with themselves. They don't know what they want. And they damn sure can't tell you.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Ash Ketchum never asked Pokemon how to improve or catch them. He asked the more skilled and successful trainers how to do so!

In other words: Ask a man who's willing to help you. Asking women? We all know how that works out. And it does no good that is for you. That's my ruling.

Case closed.
