"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"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'm going to take a wild guess and say yes, but not much. Bodyweight exercises only do so much...

You know you're going to get some "lazy" comments.

if you wanna build your upper body (chest, back, arms), try doing hands-only pushups. that is, stand in a non-vertical position (inclined a bit) on your hands only, and try to push yourself up. its hard, and takes some practice, but its a workout and a half :p also, do some dips using chairs and tables or whatever. that'll work you out a bit.

ps if youre interested in the hands-only pushups and how to be able to do them, pm me

Yes, but it wont work very well. You need to keep upping the resistance in order for your body to keep growing. Unless you can find a way to keep making the push-ups harder and harder than you'll stop growing. Get a job, save some money, and join a gym. That's the best route to take.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

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.

if it becomes too easy, take a stack of books and put them on you. use your imagination and you'll have a home gym on the cheap.

personally, if it gets too easy for me, i just change my technique a little bit (spread the arms a little more or less), or change the rhythm (doing it slower will be a lot tougher on you).

to bulk your chest, work your core, legs, and back, too.
