"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.

Hi DJs,

I'm really slim. I need to build up. My problem is nutritional,
there are many foods I don't like and don't eat. It's been
many years I'm trying to get a little bigger.

One idea came last night. The people in the army, don't eat
like us (we see in movies they don't eat well) , they do hard
everyday work, etc...

But look at them ! They are far the most build up people.

So my question is how do they do?
How can I do?

help please.
 

"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.

Real army guys are not that built. They are built more than the average population but nothing to brag about.

having been in the army, I can say that the only 'built' guys were genetic mesomorphs who ate anything and everything. but those guys would build muscle mowing lawns and eating the grass cuttings, so...

nvictor, there's no 'shortcut' to gaining weight. you simply have to eat the right foods in the right amounts (as well as train correctly), and the fact that you can't or won't is why you're slim right now, and will stay slim until you start putting the calories in.

tell us what foods you do or don't like and we'll offer some diet suggestions.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I was thinking about this the other day. People in prison always seem to have awesome bodies. Not sure if they are jacked in real life. I think they havfe pretty decent food in most prisons though. I remember hearing it takes a lot of cigarettes to buy a jug of protein.

Put yourself in a situation where you have access to a gym nearly all day, and if you're small you become the wife of a large man named Tiny.

Lets see how fast you become big then :nervous:

Deus ex,
Do you have pictures of what you call pullups, chinups, pushups (I guess it's what we call "pompes" in french) and situps ??

That's sounds interesting.

Eh, I gained about 10 pounds of pure muscle in about 3-4 weeks in Air Force basic training. Right off the bat. Only exercises we did was pullups, chinups, pushups, and situps. That of course excludes pure cardio like running and jumping jacks. I mean, I went from eating whatever I could scrounge up around the house so that I could survive, to eating huge 3 squares a day, with PLENTY of fluids throughout the day.

I think military personnel are generally in better shape because we were FORCED to go to failure, and beyond...constantly. Not only that, but there's never a shortage of food. I mean, you're guaranteed 3 meals a day...even if you f'uck up.

The exact opposite happened to me in Marine Corps boot. Every ounce of muscle I had going in I lost. It took me almost two years to get back. I came out weaker and more pathetic than ever.

Definate over training, food deprivation , and sleep deprivation.
 

"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.

I lost muscle during basic, and then regained it all plus more at school of infantry.

Thats the difference between contracted civilian cooks and army cooks - more food!
