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.
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.
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
love that momoent when you notice your gainzzzzswitch said:today i looked at my delts and damn! i can see the three heads completely separated and defined. i was like holy sh!t why didnt i notice it before...
must be the antidepressants or because i dont have a mirror at home....
anyway my posterior delt is lagging so gotta fix that.
hmm what about a press? i simply hate dumbells so i was thinking of a behind the neck press or a similar variation to hit the rear delt...Purefilth said:love that momoent when you notice your gainzzzz![]()
my medial delt is lagging, but I cant do lateral raises for it - bone catches on the inside. I just do the things I CAN do, that engage it a little.
Rear delts - I hit a standing row with wide grip, you'll feel them tear up. then do rear delt fly to finish them - get a good ole pump.

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.
parallel squats. just below parallel. i make sure to hit the safety bar thingies.Purefilth said:20 reps on 140kg?!?! fvck man - thats gotta hurt! - ATG I hope?
depression.depression and more depression. ive been down pretty badly lately since i HATE THIS FVCKJING SH!THOLE.Fuglydude said:Switch, if you`re squatting 140 kg for 20, your DL and 1 RM squat should easily be above 250 kg and 220 kg respectively... Thats`between 550-600 lbs for DLs and 480 lbs plus for squats for us imperial folk. Why set your goals so low? I`m willing to bet you can easily do a 200 kg pull cold without a warm up with those kind of numbers.
My personal best with a 20-rep breathing squat was 105 kg x 20 at a bodyweight of 77 kg , and I had a 200-210 kg DL at the time.
3 plates for 20 is an amazing feat though... I don`t think I`ve ever seen anyone do it and I`ve been around world-class athletes!!!!
Also seems funny that your gym squat record is 110 x 1... I`ve cleaned that before at a bodyweight of 82 kg. Haha maybe you should find a new gym, doesn`t seem like you belong there!
Awesome work man. I'll be proud when I can get 140kg for 1, let alone 20. And you already did 5 sets before AND after.switch said:thanks man.
thursday
squats
140X5X5
140 kgs X20 (first time doing a 20 rep set) yes thats a weight AND rep PR. <<<<< the gym record was 110kgs for 1 rep.
140X5X5
You can't help these people, best bet is to ignore them. Once the "interaction" is over, put it out of your mind. Don't let it stew inside you, you'll feel worse.switch said:just finished my 20 rep set and a gymfag told me "are you finished"
so i said "ok, you lift this weight,no... just unrack this for 1 second and you can have the rack"
- " no man , squats will give you a thick waist bro,its bad for your knees...i just wanna curl"
