She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
Not really. You fast for 16 hours, get your daily caloric intake for the day in an 8 hour window instead of eating 5-6-10 meals a day. This is supposed to make things easier for people who don't have time to eat food every 3 hours, or constantly make food.amohield said:Personally, it's waaaay too structured for me. I like doing things on my own schedule, and this'd be too much. I like my current program of Starting Strength, food, and sleep.
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
Interesting. Would you mind posting up your daily meal plan?MikeBrown30 said:Not really.

Been using this approach for about a month, steadily putting on weight, no fat gain, and psychologically it is better for me.
Training day today.TyTe`EyEz said:Interesting. Would you mind posting up your daily meal plan?
Check your PMs.MikeBrown30 said:Training day today.
12pm - Train (Consumed BCAA's 10mins prior)
2pm - 1kg roasted potatoes, 500g chicken breast, grilled tomatoes
6pm - 200g rolled oats, milk, various fruit
9:30-10pm - 500g cottage cheese, mixed berries, and I was craving something sweet today, so I had a few pop tarts.
So i'll fast until 2pm tomorrow, and being a rest day, my fat intake will be higher, carb intake lower and from fibrous/dairy sources.
Seriously the only complicated thing about it, is working out what macros work right for your body. Then again I guess you could say that about any diet.
