"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.

My calves are disgusting. I am a skinny guy, but my legs and upper body look good. My calves however, are disgustingly thin. I can't seem to get them to grow, either. I've definitely gained mass in my upper boddy and thighs...

It's to the point where I don't want to wear shorts when I'm with a girl.
 

"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.

Seated and standing calf raise works well...raise and lower slowly and be sure to get a good squeeze at the top...

For me, if I'm not feeling a brief and intense burn after each set of calf raises, I've not worked them hard enough.

Long distance running, BTW, will build your calves.

Dude! I've done distance running all my life!

Anyone here with skinny calves who has somehow made them big?

coolrunning, I am in the same boat as you. With me, I have noticed, the way I started putting on size in the calves was hitting them twice a week with heavy weights, doing standing, sitting calf raises and donkey raises. I use to play soccer and I never saw them grow once. With calves you really have to push way past their limits.

Yea weight train them like every other muscle so you can increase size (achieve hypertrophy). Sets of 6-12 reps are best for this.
 

"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'm with Salvatore here - calves are almost entirely genetic.

I'm interested in that link he's posted though - I'll give that a shot.
