"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.

Can you gain weight and lose body fat at the same time?

Is it possible to bulk up and lose body fat (I want to get it under 10%) simulataneously?

Or do I have to bulk up first then do lots of cardio later?
 

"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.

What you're saying is bulking and cutting at the same time. I doubt it, just bulk up to the weight you want, then cut.

Yes it is possible, no it is not an efficient way to do it. You'll get better results faster by bulking up then cutting.

"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.

right now I am eating tons of food, but I dont eat any junk food (ice cream pizzas, cakes, choclates, candy etc)

I dont think I am THAT skinny
I am 172 and I weight 138 pounds. So is not too bad. I have seen truly skinny guys who are like skin and bones.
