"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

i am a pretty fast distance runner and im trying to get a scholarship through cross country and i have i pretty good chance to get one. The thing is im tired of this long distance runner look, i want to put on some muscle but i dont want my speed to go down. Is there any way i can bulk up a bit and at the same time still increase my times?
 

"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.

Decide what you want to be, bro.. a distance runner or swoll.

You can't be both, because extra mass = slower times.

You aren't training to be a sprinter, so the extra weight over the longer distances kills you. i.e. your body has to work much harder to maintain the same speed at the higher weight.

If you have a scholarship riding on your performance, you'd be an idiot to start fukkin' with bulking right now.

You can bulk when you're no longer running x-country.

Sorry, bro, but it sounds like you need a bit of a reality check.

just lift, you'll look more cut but just be sure to keep running so your body can adjust to hauling a little more weight around. i think as long as you're sure to lift legs and you keep your mileage the same or possibly increase it you'll add some definition but i wouldn't go all out trying to get huge. i know a few heavier distance runners and they do just fine for themselves one would've gone to state this past year and probably would've won but he always has some bad luck when the end of the season rolls around and he f'ed up his back just like he did last year in track.
