"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.

Diet will stunt growth?

I was eating a lot less carbs for a while, and Ive become skinny (working on my six pack). As well, ive been limiting the general size of my meals.

But, my parents are trying to make me get off of this "diet". They claim that if I continue this, im not going to be able to grow to my full potential. Is this true? If I eat substantially, will I grow better?

Also, Ive been really hungry lately, so I couldnt keep up this diet. Does this mean Im getting ready for a growth spurt? Cuz im just extremely freakin hungry, and im putting on back the weight i lost.
 

"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.

Here's the trick. Eat as much as you find your loosing weight at a steady rate (usually 2 lbs MAX a week). If your hungry, you need to change your ratios or eat more in general.

Yes, eating too little can stunt your growth. That's why any diet program you read about is for 18+. If you want a six pack, eat a normal amount to insure that you get the nutrients you need, don't eat any fast food or junk, and increase the amount of cardio you do.
 

"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.

1. No
2. Be a normal kid. Weightlifting can't do anything to you as long as you do it properly.

your size is affected by your DNA, not by what you eat. Thats why those shots that apparently increase the size of young kids don't make them freakishly tall its just initiates a growth spurt.

You most likely won't be shorter from a diet, you might have a growth spurt and not get the calcium needed to insure proper bone health.
