"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

I got a gym membership yesterday and did some basic stuff but I want your help in creating a solid workout plan. I'm really skinny and I know i will never get that huge gorilla look but I just don't want to look malnourished.

I'm 6'1" and 160lb. My max bench is 115lb and I can only squat 140lb. :eek: Yes I know that's terrible even for someone just starting out. I don't really have a goal; I'd really just like to get stronger. Can you guys give me a workout plan or something? Hopefully in 2 yrs or so I won't look like someone from ethiopia.

thanks
 

"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.

Hey man, don't worry about your size... when you start the gains will come fast if you do things right. Warboss Alex once said "If you're 150 lbs you can get stronger just by brushing your teeth hard enough". You'll be skinny for a while and so will I, but the Ethiopian look will be gone in no time because of newbie gains.

Check these out, it's what lots of members here are doing right now. I've gained about 10 lbs in 2 months so far but my lifts have really improved.

What Jahidi laid out is a perfect start for you.

And there is nothing wrong with your numbers for your age/weight and considering you haven't trained for strength before.

And you have no idea what your potential is. There will have been many people in your position that will have gone on to be 220lbs+ and a behomoth. If that is the look you aspire too, go for it. Don't listen to those who say you cannot achieve your goals.

And I will re-iterate, start a workout journal if you can.

Good luck.
