"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

I was in the grocery store recently and I came across the hot dogs. Now keep in mind I'm a big health nut and hot dogs are not the healthiest things in the world to eat due to the fat & sodium. Well I never thought about fat free hot dogs or 'light' hot dogs,which to my surprise were are actually healthy minus the sodium(0-2 grams of fat per dog). Does anyone know anything as to why I shouldn't consume 4-5 hot dogs a day to keep the protein intake up? Anyone ever used hot dogs as part of their diet to gain muscle?
 

"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.

Apart from the fact that they're processed piles of ****, do they contain nitrites?

Think of any part of a cow, and that's what is in a hot dog. They mix the leftovers from EVERY part from a cow into hot dogs. Yummy!

protein is protein.


I'm a health nut too, and the main reason I stay away from hotdogs is the sodium and the fact that alot of hotdogs are usually eaten avec buns, which are terrible.

I can't think of a reason to stay away from hotdogs if they are low in sodium and fat, although I always prefer a steak or turkey breast.

Check the transfats, and that other crap.

As a rule of thumb, I usually try to steer clear of processed foods...

[edit - hotdogs do contain alot of cholesterol, whether it's good/bad cholesterol I don't know.

I heard that hot dogs are consumed of cow liver,heart and so on. Those are muscles,which in turn could help you gain muscle. F.Y.I. the ones I each only have 1 gram of trans fat each.
 

"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.

"avec buns"? there's a phrase to use in everyday conversation :D

there's dozens of better protein sources out there. almost almost heavily processed meats have more of everything nasty in them, including nitrates. should stay away from processed lunchmeats, too.

google 'hot dogs nitrates' (w/o quotes)

How about turkey dogs + chicken dogs? Are they just as bad?

ONLY 1g trans fat? You shouldn't be consuming any trans fat, bar the small amounts found naturally in food like CLA, if you truly value your health.

My mistake,1 gram of saturated,NOT TRANS.
 

"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.

trans fats are an artificial fat that result from processing vegetable oils in such a way as to make them solid at room temperate (this is how Crisco and margarine are made). partial hydrogenation creates these trans fats that occur only in trace amounts in nature, and it turns out that they're probably about the worst sort of fat you can consume, particularly for heart health.
