"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.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Free weights wont gain you a whole stone in a week. Odds are that is from you eating something high in sodium and you body retaining water as a result of it. Take daily weight readings if you want to see consistancy and really tell if you are gaining mass.

I've gained half a stone in a week before. But I'll say this, it wasnt all muscle. Hardly any of it was. It was due to some insanely poor diet, only doing heavy weights, and water retention [did I just make that word up?]

If you can gain half a stone of muscle in a week, you're probably somewhere close to a world record for natural muscle gainage...

haha... what the hell is a stone?

Is that a weird english measurement of mass that I've never heard of? Over a pound, or something.... crazy, and I thought I was well versed in world measurements :p
 

"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.

chill man, geez. I was making a little conversation, and I know how to use google. If I was dumb enough to not know how to search, I woulda replied with one line, like "what is a stone?"

or, I woulda made a new thread, like "who measures with stones?"

We're getting off topic. But in all fairness:

If I was dumb enough to not know how to search, I woulda replied with one line, like "what is a stone?"

Technically you didnt ask "What is a stone?" you got some emphasis in there aswell ;)

:D
