"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.

What do you guys think about Dr. Phil and his weight loss solutions?
 

"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.

Holy shyt, it's Suicide Boy. :eek:


I'm glad you're still with us, buddy. I'm not sure about Dr. Phils weight loss advice, but I'm genuinely glad to see that you're still part of this world. :cool:

Atkins all the way. I'm losing 3 - 5 pounds a week and eating close to 3000 cal. a day.

I suggest using Dr. Phil's methods while doing the South Beach diet. It's easier and more healthy than Atkins and you get the same results.
 

"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.

Uhhh, Dr. Phil isn't exactly slim.

And Atkins isn't safe?

Please explain?

Phil was a college football linebacker, there's no way that he would be slim. Plus he's an avid tennis player that plays almost daily. I know because my cousin works at the consulting firm he worked.

But anyway, re-read my post. I didn't say that Atkins wasn't safe. I said that South Beach was healthier. Atkins dramatically shifts the balance of protein/fat/carb intake. South Beach adjusts the intake without setting any in-balance.

This means that there is less chance of carbohydrate binge eating since they aren't drastically restricted from your diet (beyond the initial two weeks). People using South Beach report a constant weight loss beyond the 2-4 week plateau that Atkins users tend to hit. In addition the maintenance period is easier to maintain without the cravings.

I've tried Atkins with a lot of success but since I am active, I can not forgo a certain amount of carbs that I need to burn each day. With South Beach I have the energy that I need from the carbs but I can still loose weight and maintain a proper weight. Also, I can still eat at restaurants without ordering Atkins specific meals. Oh and I spend much less money on food with South Beach and I am seldom hungry.
