"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Does a person's weight fluctuate during the day or is my scale broken?

This morning I weighed myself and I was sitting at 180 lbs. That's pretty fuct cause last night I weighed myself and I was sitting at 184 lbs. Do I actually burn 4 lbs during the night, or should I throw that damn scale in the trash?
 

"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.

Fvck me a 4lb turd. Bet it took ages to flush.
LOL! I couldn't help thinking the same thing when i wrote this post. Can't help but wonder if 5hit, piss and any food intake make that happen. Perhaps it was last night's BJ. I'm surprised she didn't choke.

well in summer you lose that at night thegouh sweat. If its not hot i do not think you will lose that much, but you may do, especialy as you are heavier then me so 4lb is a small % of your weight.

When cycling for example, on a long ride with out drinking enough, in the summer, i have lost 5lb or so because of sweating, even thou i drank 2 liters of water and ate a sandwhich and 2 bannana, maybe even more!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

Check mate, did you see that thing on telly last night about the 50 year old doing the RAAM?

They put him on a turbo trainer in a climate simulator and he was losing like 2 litres an hour.

When cycling you tend not to notice it because of the wind eveaporating it.

I've noticed lots of things effect weight. Carbs combine with water in the muscles, salty foods take up water, when bulking you can have a fair old weight in your guts.

yeah you can loose so much fluid through sweating, even in winter you can.

i was doing an hour of interval training on my bike over a distance of 17km offroad and even in this cool temperture i was sweating so much you could actuly see vapour rising from my shoulders like the vapour you see when you breath out when its cold because it condenses, well i had vapour ocmming up from my shoulders.

incase you where wondering, no i dont compete, but yes i am training to do so, thats why i do 45km-90km each sunday (soon to be 90km always) skill training on saturday on heavy offraod to get used to riding more techniql terain then i ussalt ride, and 4 days a week of interval training (each session is aobut 1 hour and i do 17-22km)

so yeah im pretty serious with it

Good luck with that. I used to be a competitive triathlete, spent a lot of time in the saddle, no road racer though, as you know tri's are p1ss poor, although nowadays they allow drafting so handling skills have probably improved. Brave down hills though:p

I thought that thing last night was a bit unfair on that old guy, I said to this girl friend I was watching it with, there was no way he was going to improve that much in 2 months. He could sing though:D

Level of hydration...

Why do a 1 hour interval? how about 2x20m w/ 2 minute recovery between each effort at your Functional Threshold? Much easier mentally...

Before I started lifting, I would play a lot of Dance Dance Revolution. Once I played for like six hours or so nonstop and ended up losing like eight pounds. For the only time in my life I actually had muscle failure in my legs, cause I practically collapsed at the end.
 

"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.

haha no i dont do 1 hour intervals, the whole point of interval training is to go at speeds you can not keep up for long, I did 1 hour of interval training, intervals ranging from about 3-8 minutes at high speeds often sprinting.
