She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
Adults do not drink breast milk and babies have physiologically ideal Apo-B levels. Even then, there is evidence that atherosclerosis actually begins in childhood. Also, all saturated fat isn’t created equal. Stearic acid in chocolate is more benign than saturated fat in butter and red meat. Either way, you are still better off with that avocado.
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
You simply have an incomplete understanding of how the body works and no amount of evidence will get you to have a better amount of understanding it seems so I'll let you do you.
How is it reductionist if high saturated fat in the diet is proven to raise serum Apo-B?
Probably because studies indicate a lower risk of CVD with saturated fats so there is a lot more at play than you simply ranting about a single thing endlessly.
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.
Confounders? The consensus in cardiology is that there is causal relationship between serum Apo-B and atherosclerosis. And that saturated fat beyond a threshold (8-12% of total calories) impairs the livers ability to clear Apo-B from the blood. Do with that information what you’d like.
