You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
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.
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
This is strongman, not bodybuilding. They need to eat. Have you seen his bodyfat?blinkwatt said:I don't know if he does or not,but the formation of his stomach points to steroids. When someone takes roids (alot of them,not just once or twice),your stomach tends to forms out form due to your intestines growing as well,not flat and cut up.

You want a picture of my stomach before & after a heavy 24h carb loading? It looks exactly like that.cuzza said:They're all on steroids. They don't deny it.
Btw, as far as I'm aware steriods DON'T do that to your stomach. That's growth hormone, which is entirely different.
What is the difference between the two?cuzza said:They're all on steroids. They don't deny it.

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Nevermind,I did some research and I found out.blinkwatt said:What is the difference between the two?
Yeah but so is test., but that doesn't turn out too well when you keep supplementing it.stronglifts said:you do know that growth hormone is naturally present in your body I hope?
