"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.

These past few weeks i have noticed myself being short of breath, and wondered what might be causing this?

Would it be because I am doing little cardio?

or because I am eating a lot of food high in salts, i.e nuts, and alsoeggs which raise colesterol? and have stopped eating as much fruit?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

it could be underlying stress that is causing you to breathe poorly.

Pay attention to your posture wherever you are.. how do you sit. Are your breaths shallow?

You might want to try some Tai Chi exercises... I know it's really "gay" but they can do you a world of good to get your proper breathing rythm back.

I had been stressed a bit, but i don't think that was it.

and i've already tried to improve my posture.

I wouldnt be agaisnt doing tai chi, but I would liek to find the cause of this, seeing as i've enver had it before?

I can only put it down to the lack of cardio and the bulking diet?????


well, on my off days from lifting now i'm gonna go swimming, and on other days do 5 to 10 minutes cycling.

hopefully it will get my breathing back.
 

"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.

do you feel dizzy at all? if there is no dizzyness then your shortness of breath during stress period is indication of panic attack.

I consult this problem with psychiatrist. He confirm it. You have to take deep breath slowly. If breathing exercise fail to work, you can ask your family doctor to prescribe anti-anxiety drug to prevent panic attack.
