"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

"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.
it didnt give you instructions? how cheap is it?
you have to load, this means:
days 1-5: take 5 heaping teaspoons per day.
after days 1-5(maintnence): take 2 heaping teaspoons 2x a day.
maybe once in the morning and once post workout
or whatever you find best.

you want to take 20g per day in the loading phase (days 1-5), then 5 to 10g per day for the rest of your cycle. Drink over a gallon of water per day.
There are a ton of creatine threads on here, just do a quick search and you'll find more than you need.

Ive read that the latest studies say u dont have to do a loading phase and just take like 5 (or was it 10?) g of creatine every day. Thats what im stickin to. Maybe a loading phase is better and those studies were bull****, but if u dont do a loading phase it will only take some days more for u to get loaded and have more water stored I guess..right?
"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.

seriously after about a week or so, you only need about 2g of creatine a day... the residual buildup would remain in the body for up to a month if you decided to discontinue use.

5g/day is definitely sufficient. Creatine, like many other supps, is taxing on the liver, so you don't wanna overdo it.

Two recent long term studies of (powder) creatine use have concluded that creatine use does NOT damage the liver or kidneys or harm the body in any other way if used correctly. The only reason creatine has received bad press is because of incorrect use from consumers.
You should also keep in mind that people get creatine just from eating red meat.
I don't have a link but my source comes from a mass gaining book that footnotes these two publications:
Poortmans J, Francaux M. "Long-Term Oral Creatine Supplimentation Does Not Impair Renal Function in Healthy Athletes." Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, (1999); 31:1108-111

shiftkey, from the way that quote is worded, is it definitely propoganda for the bodybuilding cause. "If used correctly" doesnt mean anything. Most likely, it means not taken as a supp/only from meat. In that case, you'd be getting less than 1g/day.

"Used correctly" means taken as directed on the label. Those studies were done just as the labels suggest.
