"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.

does anybody on here have 'cheat days/nights' where you put off the schedule for 1 day to consume alcohol?, i am currently on 2 cheat nights a week (friday/saturday night obviously), is this harmful to my bulking?

every other day (5 days a week) i'm eating and drinking 300/350g of protein!!
 

"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.

Look up how alcohol interacts in your body and you might, like me, tend to consider as more than just a "cheat" meal.

Consider it a "destruction" meal!

I'm not talking about a couple beers/shots a week...I'm talking about enough alcohol to knock you out of your fukking mind! If your diet is TOTALLY solid, your workouts are hardcore, and you eat like a beast, then maybe getting "buzzed" ONCE a week is OKAY (still not optimal)!

To lessen the effects, come home and drink a couple liters of water, down a protein shake, get some carbs in, and have some cottage cheese or something. Also take a multivitamin before going to bed. This is my "post-alcohol" routine. This will lessen the negative effects it will cause! I actually have everything READY ahead of time, before I go out, so that I can quickly down it when I get home!

Since I'm on a serious bulking schedule, I'm seriously cutting back.

Like WarBoss stated quite blatantly, there's really no point in going and working out, as well as buying supplements/tons of food if it's just going to be blowed away by heavy drinking!
