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 might be a big problem. Everyone on here sugests Eggs for Bfast and lots of meat. In my opinion empty calories (Soda, candy, and simple sugars in general) are bad when it comes to a healthy diet because they have no nutrients and little to no dietary value.Docs said:My diet is...random and ever-changing. I would like to have a diet I can follow to get something out of it, because some days I'll just eat cereal, some days I'll eat candy, and most days I'll eat a good meal, that changes from day to day.
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.
I know. I dont' have a stable diet at the moment, and my move to Kingston will allow for me to gain full control of it, and I would like a personalized list of what I should be trying to eat for meals (multiple choices), what to eat for supplement (BIG), what to eat only once a week, and stuff to totally avoid?This might be a big problem.

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.
I am so confused by that scale you posted. What is chocolate cake have to do with anything, being a number 4...? It looks to me like a reversed scale, where high energy.....? stuff is on top, and down to..beans.?!? I have no idea. You'll have to explain it.Eating is going to be a huge part of this for you. Understand now that this is a whole lifestyle, you'll have to structure your day around your meals, you can't sort of do it, you have to be consistent over a long period of time (years)
For your intake i'd have u start out with for a month and see how that does then make changes as needed.
300g of protein
250 carbs (no higher than 50-60 on this scale http://www.ironaddicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3983)
110 fat
Neato! ^^,Docs, i was thinking about this post and my replies, and then i thought, why should i wait 6 months before steping things up a bit so today I went and got myself 20kg of weights to add to my dumbells so that now i can have up to almost 45kg. I will also start getting whey protein because i feel that the cna of tuna i have on days that i work out is not enough of a supplement for me.
Not true. You can gain muscle in a deficit (and lose fat in a surplus) as long the calories aren't cut drastically low.check_mate_kid_uk said:I heard something intresting today. You can not gain muscle iwht a calorie deficit because the protein will be used for energy!
So, I think eating a lot of protein, and having normal meals would be a start? Does anyone have the time to create a little daily meal thing for me, with alternative foods for Breaky, Lunch, Dinner, Late-Night and everything in between?It's what I keep telling everyone, muscle is built from protein, have enough protein in your system and apply the correct training stimulus and you can grow even in a deficit
That's a ****load I don't think he will be able to handle all those cals.Brian20o2 said:High Metabolism? Eat more! Eat 5000 cals a day if you have to in order to pack on muscle. I think 1 lbs of muscle is about 3500 cals or somthing. You need that much extra in order to gain that much muscle. I have another thread on here that talks about eating, what to eat, etc. Eating
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.
