"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.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Yeah you're cool man. Sorry if I don't need creatine like you do.

I'd like to see you stop taking it and then lift. Idiot

Many people I know have stopped creatine and still had the same strength. All they lost was a little bulk, which was the result of there being so much water in their systems.
Once that water was gone, the muscle strength and true muscle size was still there.

Haha you talk about creatine as if it were steroids, how about you do some research before you state your outrageous claims. Ive been on and off creatine for 3 years now, taking 6 week cycles and then stop for 8 weeks. These are very short cycles but even if you were 'on' creatine for a whole year, you wouldn't grow dependant on it.

You're an idiot, no really, you are.

You fail to grasp how creatine should be used, and how it works, thus rendering almost everthing you say an ignorant pile of B.S.

I only use it when my strength plateaus, to break through barriers, and it works. I just take a week or two off from training after that and I come back even stronger without the creatine. Then I repeat the whole process. I could stop it any day of the week and still see the same strength gains, but maybe I wouldn't be able to push that last rep up. I'd compare to being on a carb-load, when you feel like you have a ton of strength and pumps.
 

"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.

I personally don't use any supplements. I know some of them work, and some of them don't, but I feel lots of self-gratification when someone looks at me and my shape and I can honestly say to them, "Yup. It's all calisthenics. And all natural." Just feels good for me.

I say take what you want. As for me, while I may not grow as big as others that take stuff, or grow as fast as others that take stuff, I'm happy with my current rate of progress, and I'm happy to save $$$ not buying stuff.

If we banned all the idiots on the forum, we wouldn't have any members.

What we do ban for, however, is name-calling.

are you actually talking about creatine?
 

"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.
