"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.

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Go to the Doc and have him check your blood pressure.

I JUST had this same thing happen to me

it was on the leg press. it was at the back of my head and it hurt

definately go to the doc. try stretching out really well and make sure your back is well aligned.

if your doc says something can you let me know? i want to get to the doc too but i dont know when i can

its probably nothing serious, usually isnt, but i would advise not doing anything that would cause the headaches, including heavy lifting and sex

Funny you put those two things in the same catagory :D I suggest that if you somehow have these two things next to each other in your mind, that you get your girlfriend on weight watchers :p

LOL Heizen :) - i think i might have mis-spoke. i was thinking more like things that would cause a buildup or stress/tension/pressure something like that :D

Anyway I've talked to a physical therapist, a personal trainer/massage therapist, and made a call to the doc

all said that i should be fine. the p therapist suggestion it might have been some sort of muscle spasm, the pt/m therapist suggested a slight misalignment in the back that might cause a buildup of pressure which to me sounds equally or more plausable, and the doc just said unless i start losing conciousness i should be fine...just to use discretion in my actions.

i still wake up with headaches, and my lower back and and neck are still a little sensitive, but i think thats because of my mattress here at home, not or not entirely the result of that workout.

i dont know how much of this applies to you, and of course does not take tha place of medical advice from a professional who is aware of your specific circumstance, but i hope it helps a bit at least :)

happy holidays!
 

"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.
