"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.

There are a bunch of grip exercises you can find by doing a google search. Or you can get heavy grippers, which are spring grippers like you would find at wal-mart only instead of 50 or 75 pounds they start at 100 and go up to a whopping 500lbs of force needed to close them! I got a set of 5 ranging from 100 - 300lbs for 60 bucks! Farmers walk will also take it's toll on your forearms.

straps or hooks. Hooks won't workout your forearms though. You'll still get a forearm workout with straps.

try a mixed or alternating grip (one hand overhand, the other underhand) when doing deadlifts, and work on your forearms on a day you're not already doing deadlifts. easiest & cheapest way to beat up your forearms is to do farmer's walks (pick up the heaviest pair of dumbbells from a rack, walk away until you can't stand it, pick 'em up again and walk back). straps are fine for very heavy weight, but they work by reducing the load on your forearms, which is a double-edged sword.

you MAY use straps, for the last set only.
otherwise you need to work on your grip.
 

"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.
