"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.

Increased Testosterone=Increased Levels of Appetite?

Folks, I was wondering...does an increase in a man's testosterone levels lead to an increase in his level of appetite? Ever since I began working out consistently and have now gained more muscle mass, I've noticed that I feel the need to eat quite more often than I used to. During my skinnier days, I could get away with just eating two meals a day. I often used to skip lunch. These days, if I only eat cereal or a muffin for breakfast, my stomach will be growling not too long before noon. Now, I feel compelled to eat at least three times a day, and skipping breakfast is definitely not an option anymore.

Some have suggested to overweight people especially, that one way to curb appetite is by drinking more water. I was wondering therefore, whether or not this sudden increase in appetite from working out regularly is a good or bad thing?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

uh no idea about testosterone but why wouldn't your body crave more nutrients when it's trying to repair and grow?

it's good. because you DO need to eat more.

Hey champ, its a great thing! Just make sure your eating healthy, getting protein every meal. You need to listen to your body, if your hungry, then eat. Also, drinking water when your hungry willl take the edge off a bit. Also mini fasts 5-7 hours of no food but lots of water are great for overall health, I do it everyday and it has not really affected my muscle gains.

It's probably a combination...your body is both craving more nutrients and has increased testosterone levels (which stimulates your appetite too).
 

"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.

Don't do this.
