"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

My natural clock seems to be Hugh Hefner hours - go to sleep as the sun is coming up.
 

"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.

Waking up at 10am makes the strongest and more energic, 8 hours from 3am to 11am leave me full of energy while 8 hours from 11pm to 7am leave me lazy as fvck.

I hate the alarm clock, I would rather run 10 floors of stairs rather than waking up before Im ready.

They sold it to me as "flexible".
Well, "flexible" is most often not in favor of the employee. I'm not exactly flexible though. After exactly 5 weeks the schedule just repeats. I know how I work tomorrow, next week, month, year or decade. So it's very predictable. There's really only 1 rough transition during those 5 weeks, the rest doesn't require sudden changes in sleep pattern.

What I meant about not keeping a regular schedule is that I can't do something at a specific time on a specific weekday every single week, because at least once every 5th week I'll work at that time.

Had it been unpredictable or as they so nicely try to sell it "flexible", then I would have quit a long time ago.

I was so exhausted that one time coming home, I got money out of a cashpoint and actually left the money in the cashpoint.

And i've done stuff like 12 hours on building sites no problem.

For me, early or late but not both.
We occasionally switch back and forth in my line of work. As you said, that's about the worst sh1t ever, I reckon.

You have to get used to people's angry sides. And you've never truly seen someone's angry side until they're completely exhausted.
