Any tips on how to get energy to keep up with your kids? Would exercise help with 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.
How do you get the energy to keep up with your kids?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

No kids yet, but how's your health? Are you eating right? Are you exercising?
Diet and exercise. But also mental will. There's a lot of times I feel like sitting on the couch and watching TV due to lack of energy. Mentally, I focus on my investment towards them and what that will yield in the coming years. I want my kids to have a positive role model and be the best they can be. That won't happen with me sitting on my azz and setting a bad example.
I have 11,10,7 yo boys so you know how much of handful they can be.
Once you hit a certain age(it varies by individual), you might find yourself in low energy. Change up your diet and don't be afraid to try different supplements in addition to vitamins.
Also get a testosterone test if you suspect you might be low. That is another source where you might feel low energy.

Yes.
No kids myself...
My big brother tho has 3 and he says it makes wonders for him to go to the gym really early in the morning, like 5-6 am before his family wakes up and the whole circus show starts etc. He does some weight training and treadmill running for what I know. Like an hour or so..
I know he says it has help him at lot and it raises his energy levels a great deal.
Kinds can be real pain in the b'utt and energy vampire's sometimes. (If not always lol
)Have them young..... so when your older you don't gotta worry about that shyt. Lol... had my first at 19....then 2nd one at 26.... I'm 43 now. I'm glad now that my ex left me ... my kids pick me over her and I don't gotta worry about toddlers ever again... no young kids was a prerequisite for after my wife left me.... I did my time.. I don't care how pretty the woman is....
"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.
