"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

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.

"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.

You counteract old age by living right and clean (no drugs, smoking, excessive drinking, working out).

What you're after is estrogenic effects. Problem is, a man can't gobble down estrogen without losing his masculinity. You have to keep estrogens in balance with androgens. That's why it's better to take the precursor molecule: DHEA.

DHEA is a cheap, easy-to-find, over-the-counter supplement. If you're going to try out hormones, that's a much safer route. You sure never hear of people keeling over and dying from using it.
 

"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.

In my research, I ran into some stuff about DHEA and elevated risks of cancer. Remember nothing's risk free.

You've probably seen the cenegenics ad that has the old dude with the body of a young guy. From what I understand, it's a combination of testosterone, HGH, diet, and weightlifting.

From what I've read recently, testosterone replacement and HGH are worth looking into. However, I personally want to find out more about them before pulling the trigger.

Another way to look at it is if youre getting older and really losing your edge, why not? Then it's just a question of at what age? I just turned 55 and havent felt the need yet to do it, but i work pretty hard to keep what I've got...

17β-estradiol is the sex hormone most responsible for cellular growth. That's why cancer patients are sometimes prescribed antiestrogenics. DHEA decomposes into the other androgens, which (except for libido-causing DHT) decompose into the estrogens. Supplementing with extra DHEA increases your body's levels of both androgens and estrogens. So taking DHEA when you have cancer is likely to speed the growth of tumors.

However, saying "DHEA causes cancer" is like saying "water causes cancer." It's ridiculous on its face.

DHEA is usually taken in low amounts -- about equal to what a young adult normally produces in the adrenal glands. That way, the body doesn't overreact to an excess by shutting down testicular production (which it does when you take the god-awful overdoses of testosterone that are so popular).

You're the only one talking about causing cancer. I choose my words carefully, there's enough flying off the deep end as is.

What's a normal amount of produced in the body?
 

"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.

What about old age are you wanting to counter? Looks, mood, sexual performance, energy?

250 to 500 times less than serum DHEA-S levels. A pretty small amount.

Normal blood levels of DHEA-sulfate can differ by sex and age.

Typical normal ranges for females are:
•Ages 18 - 19: 145 - 395 ug/dL
•Ages 20 - 29: 65 - 380 ug/dL
•Ages 30 - 39: 45 - 270 ug/dL
•Ages 40 - 49: 32 - 240 ug/dL
•Ages 50 - 59: 26 - 200 ug/dL
•Ages 60 - 69: 13 - 130 ug/dL
•Ages 69 and older: 17 - 90 ug/dL

Typical normal ranges for males are:
•Ages 18 - 19: 108 - 441 ug/dL
•Ages 20 - 29: 280 - 640 ug/dL
•Ages 30 - 39: 120 - 520 ug/dL
•Ages 40 - 49: 95 - 530 ug/dL
•Ages 50 - 59: 70 - 310 ug/dL
•Ages 60 - 69: 42 - 290 ug/dL
•Ages 69 and older: 28 - 175 ug/dL
Source. Please use the search box for DHEA. It's likely effective for making old people's skin smoother and for reducing age spots.

As with all the other steroids, DHEA has many functions in the body. DHEA is present in some brain structures at one-seventh that of DHEA-S. Here's a link to a 1998 study that concluded DHEA helps protect the brain against toxins.

Hormones seems to be lesser of the problems since you have hormone therapies available these days for old farts like us. What knocked me down to the floor in despair yesterday is that it research shows older men have a higher chance of fathering babies with genetic defects
https://www.google.com/search?q=old...s=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

Now immediately some of you will jump up and provide examples of healthy children born to older fathers, but these are statistics taken from a large population so we can't refute it using only examples we have seen in person.
Let us save the semen in the semen bank now itself and then go fvucking around till 80.
