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.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
And strength.Originally posted by MetalFortress
Aside from the attitude, I agree with Real Man. Go look up Pavel if you want REAL health and fitness knowledge.
If it is then go tell that to the dweebs at bodybuilding.com.Originally posted by Phenomenom101
Of course you would have to agree with the idiot. The guy is practically saying "lift heavy, and eat a lot". FUKKIN DUH! Thats practically the basis of bodybuilding.
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.

Saine, we're not talking about diseases here. We're talking physical health, and Pavel IS good with that.

I have never met a real man who makes a habit of calling other men pussies.

Saine, if you can't bench one hundred ("200 lb. reps? Wtf? Some of us can't even bench half of what we weigh") then you are on the wrong forum. If you can't bench 200 do what is acceptable to you. T TH S... wow, you completely killed his point. His point was do it at intervals, 3x/week with 1 day rest between... its a valid point... give your muscles time to recuperate. Also, don't take stuff so literal to make a point, no wonder this thread is titled "Flaming hell."Originally posted by Saine
It's a useless recap and can be vague.
200 lb. reps? Wtf? Some of us can't even bench half of what we weigh. Ketogenic? Oh boy.
Then dictating OUR workout time for us? I have had T, TH, and SAT. What are you gonna say? Huh?
That's for getting "big and strong". Why not read the guides stickied? Jeez,

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

And niggardly is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as "someone who is cheap, stingy." I hope you understand what Spade means. Now, you don't know my race so don't make retarded conclusions, try to guess my race, homie. You won't get it. And I'm an embarassment? ROFL! Keep trying...Originally posted by MetalFortress
"Call a spade a spade" is a term for calling them like you see them. Now you're hating on white people in defense of your own race too. Stop being such an embarrassement to your race and stop being so paranoid..
