"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.

Ouch!

I dunno? ...it didn't hurt really, I was asleep, but a few hrs later... BLAM! There it was. One bite gave me a lil golfball size bubble on my face.

Went to the doctor.. they told me to take the following.

Doxycycline Hyclate (100mg), and Prednisone (20mg)

Just wondering if anyone knows what this stuff is, and if I should take it?
Isn't one a steroid?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

Take whatever the doctor prescribed you, there is no "walking off" a Brown Recluse bite. In the USMC, I saw what happens when guys allow a Recluse bite to fester.

Prednisone is absolutely a steroid and one with serious side effects. But it is also a strong immunosuppressant and is a good anti-inflammatory drug, which should help with a brown recluse spider bite.

If you are taking it for more than a week make sure you taper it off. Most steroids are like that since they start mirror natural occurances in your body. And monitor your blood sugar.

Are you sure it was a brown recluse? Have you seen pictures of those bites? The poison kills the skin cells, is very nasty.

Years ago I got several very small bites, that I later figured was a brown recluse. I "toughed it out", but it literally took months to fully heal. The poison just keeps eating the skin. I was fortunate to only get a tiny amount of poison..but it left scars.

I still have scars on my arm from those bites.

I sure hope it wasn't a brown recluse, that bit you in the face.
 

"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.

Brown recluse bites can cause necrosis. That's something you really don't want.

My face has gotten better. A few days ago, I had a lump the size of a golfball on my face. Now, it just looks like Drew Bree's birth mark. :) ...which isn't too cool either. lol

It may not have been a BRS... because my face is still intact, but I did get bitten by something, and my face swelled up like a mothasucka.

I haven't been taken the steroid, but have been taking the antibiotics. Seems to be working. Here's hoping it doesn't get any worse.
