"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.

Ok... I assumed this was just really bad tendonitis. I’ve had it on and off for over a year and managed to work thru it. Yesterday did a tricep workout and went golfing. This morning the pain in my elbow was brutal and I now have a golf ball sized lump on the elbow bone. Sent a picture to a doctor I’m friends with he said elbow bursitis and will see me Monday.

has anyone had this and is it possible to keep active and working out with it? It really hurts doing triceps.... chest it’s tolerable but some discomfort... back, legs, shoulders, biceps really no pain. It looks like it takes 4-8 weeks to heal with rest. I have never taken off more than two weeks In my life.... what would you guys recommend?
 

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.

Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers.  Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.

I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.

You have to work around it and not do exercises that bother it, which means by necessity you will have to stop doing those things for as long as it takes to heal. Or deal with it getting worse endlessly.

Hi Machine,
In my early thirties I suffered what we call "Tennis Elbow"after getting too
enthusiastic about Squash....With rest it took a month or so to disappear but several years
before it completely went away.Every time I played Squash again it recurred,eventually had to
give the game away.

Take your Vitamin D WITH Vitamin K. Dr. Eric Berg on YT tells people to take 20,000 IU's a day but I never take that much. Some turmeric to top it off seems to be helping as well. It's in my heel but I am getting pretty good relief from it. I'm also using prescription orthotics as much as possible.

Vitamin K2, not K...and make sure it's MK-7 form not MK-4.
 

"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.

this is annoying AF! Doctor said I have scar tissue in my elbow... said this can irritate the bursar sac and lead to bursitis. Still working around it... but planning surgery this winter to get this joint cleaned out.

Yeah I know what you mean...I have a degenerative elbow with a loose body in it that causes issue sometimes...usually as long as I am careful with the exercises I do it's good...no push ups, overhead tri extensions, etc...

Getting old kinda sucks.
 

"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.

Hi Machine,
You are doing all the right things....Takes several years to repair (If ever)
Gelatine will help.
