"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.

. I’m a fairly healthy 28-year-old guy. 5’9, 190lbs. I went to the doc because my hips were killing me. I got the cool friggen laser x-ray tube thing done and it turns out that I have a disc that is pushing out against some nerve cords which causes my lower hips to ache when I sit.

So, I ask what I can do. The Doc says “Sorry. This just happened to hit you early. Some weight loss will help along with getting Cortisone shots in your spine *shiver*

So I get the shot. No more pain when I sit. But I have a real problem. I can’t run anymore. Doc says no more lifting, no running, no shocks to your spine, no stress. No more weight training. To make matters worse, no pool in town. CRAP!

Now, I’m carrying about 15lbs too much. I’d really like to loose it and I was working on that this summer. Now though, I’m worried about getting fat.

So, I’ve started doing extensive Tai Chi in the morning, around an hour a day. I’m sweaty and pleasantly shaky by the end of it. I’m also walking to work now instead of driving. I live in a town of 2,500 so it is no big deal.

My question is to you pro’s of working out, am I doing enough physical activity to start loosing weight?

My caloric intake averages around 3,000 calories a day.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

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.

I'd like to do this weight loss correctly, but with these restrictions my doc has placed on me, I'm not sure how to go about it.

Monitor your weight loss with your current activity - if you're not losing weight, then add some more walking (i.e. in the evening, or in the morning before work), etc.

Watch what you eat; eat clean sources and don't mix too much fat and carbs.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
