"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
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.

I treat the abs like any other muscle. I use weight. Get a decline bench, and get on it with a dumbell pinned against your chest (Just above your pecs on your collarbone). Go up, but only a certain amount. You will be able to tell when your hip flexors take over the strain instead of your abs. Kind of like trying to touch your bellybutton with your chin. Keep that dumbell pinned, and do a number of reps in a number of sets your feel comfortable with, but don't go crazy. I use 3 sets, you might feel differently.

you dont even need a bench, can put strain on lower back.
But like dude said, grab a dumbell and hold it up behind your head or high on your chest and do your crunches...nice and slowwwww. You will feel that ****.

Whatdo you suggest then? The floor over a padded bench?
Besides, you really need the decline to put proper strain on the abs, since the range of motion of abs isn't fully covered if you are laying flat.

janda situps
hanging leg(or knee) raises
side deadlifts or saxon side bends for the obliques
If you want to hypertrophy your abs, you will need to do about 30 reps in a session, emphasizing the negative. If you just want them to be rigid, you will need to do 1-2 sets of 5 or so, at least daily.
If you are doing the serious compound lifts, especially military presses, your abs are getting plenty of work. This of course assumes you are standing up. Best way to cheat yourself of an ab workout is by sitting down for shoulder presses, sitting down for rowing, sitting down for.....

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

I have been using a swiss ball..it seems to be doing a pretty good job.. holding a weight..leaning way back touching the floor and coming forward to touch knees.
I try to switch rep and weight schemes every two weeks...what are your guys thoughts on this?

I sit on the swissball. it makes you use your core muscle..at firts it is a pain in the arse..but well worth it.. lean back as far as possible and get a good stretch like any other lift..
by developing your core you can lift more and make steady progress..

While somewhat of a girl thing, Pilates is great. It was created by a guy.
I had a girlfriend and she had me do the Pilates video with her.
It is a killer workout. I actually bought one here that I do sometimes.
Your abs will be as sore or more sore than any machiine you use at the gym.
I'll let you know if I ever use it consistently though
