That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
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.

q: How do you develope a "healty sleeping pattern" ?The Bad Ass Canadian said:That's basically the jiist of it.
Do not mess with your hormones. If you feel something is up, go see a doctor, but otherwise the right nutrition plan and exercise plan combined with proper sleep patterns will self regulate your hormones.
Sleep is key. Get to bed by 10:00pm and get up by 6am, regularly. (weekends you can get away with late nights, as long as you're eating really well) Your growth, rest and repair cycles which are hormone driven operate at peak efficiency between the hours of 10pm and 6am. Sleeping in the daytime does not have the same effect on your growth and repair cycles, because these are circadian rhythms driven by the day night cycle.
Physical growth and repair happen between 10pm and 2am and mental/cognitive rejuvenation happens between 2am and 6am. If you get to bed even an hour late, you're cutting into your growth and repair cycles.
I have a lot of clients who don't get better until I get them sleeping properly. It is as important as diet and exercise and people think I'm crazy when I tell them this, until they spend a month doing it and noticing the changes in their day to day performance in and out of the gym.

I see that you suggest 8 hours of sleep? I`ve never been able to sleep more than 7 top, No matter how tiered or sleep deprived i am.
I`ve tried going to bed early, but can`t go to sleep after ive lied in my bed 2-3 hours. So useally a "night`s sleep" is 4-5 hours max for me..
Sorry if the question isn`t related to the topic...
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.
Thanks for the reply,The Bad Ass Canadian said:I'll tell you how:
Turn off your computer. Turn off the TV. Dim the lights in the evening and read a book, or do some yoga or something like that.
Cortisol and Melatonin are the two chief regulators of circadian rhythm. At 6am, your body releases cortisol and this is supposed to wake you up. Cortisol is at it's peak by noon and then slowly dips throughout the day and by 6pm melatonin (the sleep inducing hormone) begins to rise and take over. Melatonin is at its peak by about midnight.
Computer screens, TVs, loud music, stress, anxiety caffeinated beverages after noontime) and all the other things we preoccupy ourselves with, daily tend to keep us jacked up on cortisol. So if you are staying up late and surfing the net and watching TV (these screens act like strobe lights) you are keeping your cortisol levels high, when melatonin should be taking over.
You need to make big changes if you want to look and feel your best.
If you can only sleep 4-5 hours a night, you are in for big trouble down the road and I'd urge you to address this stuff now.
Shallow, restless sleep is a sign that something is up. Stress, and possibly even a parasite infection could be to blame. Or just a very messed up circadian rhythm that has been entrained to not get deep restful sleep. That can take a long time to fix, but there's no time like the present.
