So do you think coffee is good or bad for you? Would it be better to not drink coffee at all or would it benefit me to drink it?
"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.
Coffee, good or bad?

"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.

i dont think there is too much harm besides possible dehydration with it and of coarse the creamer. i drink 3 cups a day to keep me going because i work 3rd shift. just watch how much creamer you use and drink some water throughout the day too.

I drink a cup of black coffee before every single work out. Tastes horrendous but gives me a little energy boost while helping me focus more when lifting. And it's much cheaper than those pwo drinks which are terrible for your body.
Difference between a drug and an ingredient is dosage. How many cups of coffee? You drinking for taste? Once in awhile to wake up? Or regularly to the point where you NEED it to wake up and feel normal at which point the coffee loses the stimulant effect and you need it for regular energy and are physically addicted. If you don't have it, you feel like ****.
Dosage.
Dosage.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

What are you trying to accomplish?
Generally speaking... caffeine is VERY bad for you. So is beer. So is smoking.
If you're trying an ECA stack, then caffeine may be a great thing for you while you cut. If you're addicted to caffeine because you drink a lot of soda/coffee and cant function without it, its may be the worst thing for you.

Caffeine is not VERY bad for you. Neither is beer. It's all about the dosage.
Moderate caffeine intake is fine. By moderate I mean 1-3 cups of coffee per day. Coffee actually has some health benefits in moderation, as does beer. But the key is to know what moderation is. You arent going to be any worse off health-wise by not consuming these beverages, but if you do consume them moderately you will be fine.

Well, technically speaking, even smoking cigarettes has "health benefits".Colossus said:
The reason why I asked what the OP is trying to accomplish (of if its just a general question) are because things like caffeine and alcohol could be counter productive for building large amounts of mass, like bodybuilding. However, if the person is trying to cut or lose weight, those two things can help.
And... if the OP is constipated, smoking a cig can be very good for that!

Not really sure if the coffee itself will have any ill effects, but watch how much cream and sugar you put in there. That can be what really makes the difference in how you feel.
"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.

The reason why im asking is because I was recently given a boat load of coffee, literally. I want to know if I drink all of this coffee, probably $400 dollars worth, am I going to benefit from this or am I going to destroy myself. Capice.

If you drink it all at once, you will destroy yourself. If you space it out and don't go overboard, you should be fine.iwanttofight said:

I actually have researched this...
Bottom line: Moderate (1-3 cups/day) coffee drinking is good for you, including caffeine. The health benefits far outweigh the negatives. Even Olympic athletes drink coffee as part of their training diet now.
Things to keep in mind:
1) While coffee is good for you, sugar is most definitely not, and we already get too much of it. No sugar, go easy on cream.
2) Coffee does not dehydrate you anywhere close to as much as previously thought, but it does not replace your regular water consumption. Period.
3) Listen to your body. Everyone reacts to caffeine differently. A friend of mine can get random anxiety attacks from only a little caffeine which definitely are NOT good for you. I can put down a loaded cup of coffee and take a nap or go to bed. It energizes me, but I never feel "withdrawal" from it.
So, the answer is... drinking coffee isn't necessary. Green tea has pretty much all the benefits and none of the negatives. But if you like it and you want to drink coffee, drink it and don't feel bad about it. Just don't be an idiot.

plain coffee is fine just don't add refine sugars, and don't drink to much, a cup a day is fine. Every thing in moderation. Just feel your own body if you notice you cant function with out it or you begin to have headaches when you don't drink it for a day, it would be a good idea to cut back because your body is becoming addicted and reliant on it. remember by definition caffeine is a drug that increases blood pressure so it is possible to become addicted. as for DIET the more you intake the more calories, more calories means more exercising to stay thin, if coffee isn't that important to you i think cutting those extra calories is a good idea.
"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.

Recent (independent) research indicates that coffee actually doesn't dehydrate you much, and that much of the claimed health problems are actually untrue.
Only if you drink many cups every day.
I don't have any links for you but it's been published a lot, look on google.

Coffee May Protect Liver From Booze, Study Finds
Compared to no coffee consumption, researchers estimated one cup a day was tied to a 22 percent lower risk of cirrhosis. With two cups, the risk dropped by 43 percent, while it declined 57 percent for three cups and 65 percent with four cups.

You're overthinking things.
If coffee appears to be helping you in more ways than its harming you, there is your answer.
My own opinion is that it's fine in moderation, but I try to minimize the additives like milk/sugar.

“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.
