"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

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.

Alright let me hit you with some background information.

I started working out about 2 years ago. Started off a little wrong and I was like working out like crazy, running, swimming, all kinds of stuff. I liked doing that but I was like lifting every day and doing all this stuff and wasn't really seeing any definite results so I revamped the whole thing.

I changed everything I ate and saw a massive difference. Ive been eating like this for about two months and it is going really well. I eat lean meats, wheat and complex carbs, fruit vegetables, water and thats it.

I have been lifting real heavy on top of this intake and so my muscles are defining themselves and im loosing the little bits of fat I have left.

nightime gets me though,
thats the problem i eat like three meals a day and then at night im talking about like 9-11, i have like a bowl of cereal and a sandwhich or something like snacks like that, still healthy, but late.

im wondering

1) if you think this is making any significant difference in my physical appearance

2) if i add cardio to my workout will this balance it out, and cuold i then eat whatever i want at night.
For the most part cardio is no existant in my workout, but i would have no problem adding some intense sprint level running every other day if i could eat my bowl of cereal every night
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Walk on the treadmill at a light pace where you can keep a conversation the entire time ( 45min )first thing in the morning 4days a week.

Also cut carbs off 3-6 hours before bed. Eat lean meats, tuna, chicken, beef, cottage cheese, nuts, whey, eggs, veggies for your meals after cutting your carbs.
