"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Help..hitting the gym and loosing weight instead of bulking up

"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.

Same boat as you pal...been lifting hard for 8 weeks. When I weighed myself the other day I was 167...a pound lighter than when I started. And yes, I do look more cut and defined just like YOU say. The solution: Buy some protein bars ( I already have), eat some carbs before you lift (extra energy) and stuff yer face, but stay away from fried foods (chicken Mcnuggets, Big Macs, KFC, etc, soda and sweets. NO CARDIO!!
With regards to my workout, i've been following Diesel's guide. With NO cardio.
I guess, i'm just not eating enough. And i'll definately try the pre/post workout protien bar.
I've been drinking the weight gainers protein shake (GNC's pro performance - Elite Mega Mass) and I figured that should be just as good as protein bars.

"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.
I can gain weight, I can get to about 165+ lbs, but then a few days later I'm back to 155lbs. WTF...
I eat at least 3200 calories per day, very little fried foods or sweets. 250g+ protein per day. No weight gain.
i'm starting to wonder if there is a weight "wall" that we hard gainers hit? we can get majorly defined and cut but our bodies just won't let us get any heavier.
I figure is there's a thing such as a "fat" gene that makes it hard for obese people to loose weight. Maybe the same type of thing exists for us -- only in reverse.

yea u can say that...
but once u cross that wall it's not hard...
u know i used to be thin but muscular n i thought i can eat anythign n not get fat but hey i hit the wall n got big
didn't realise i was thin due to my rigourous Martial art training which was 6 hrs + per day.
wat i needed to do??
just sit back for 6 months n keep eating

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
