"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

What are the leanest sources for beef as well.

Also what is the leanest beef i can get from a deli?
Real beef is proper beef, not corned beef.. any cut of beef, ground beef, any type of steak..

I think you can get 96% lean beef, that'd be super lean steak if you're in the UK.

Dunno about delis, ask 'em.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Alex explained the fast food thing really well.

I know a lot of people trying to put on muscle and there scared of adding a little body fat.

You need CALORIES to grow and fast food is an easy way to get a lot of them, like alex said you have to experiment and see how much your body can handle this, 2-3 times a week shouldn't be a big deal.

And cardio, carb cutoffs, green tea will take care of fat

Some sort of metabolism booster is vital when trying to trim down, aside from am cardio.. green tea is healthy and very effective.

I'd recommend the extract in pill form too, the taste is, um, bleugh.
 

"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.

Thanks.

That pic is actually the new one. The old one was http://www.geocities.com/jonnyhighwire/meweek1.jpg

I just forgot I named the files wrong.

I would do deads but I dont really know how, I can read off the internet but Im scared of doing them wrong. I guess I'll find someone who knows more about lifting than I do to show me the form.

Peace.

"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.
