"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

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.

I worked out for the first time in 2 months on tuesday. I did some squats (3x5x70), which I felt was heavy. My old max was 95x5. However, the next day and until now, my muscles have been really sore or damaged. I fail to walk properly, stairs hurt to walk down (i also spend a lot more time than i usually would). It mostly hurts in my Quads now, and I think that's because Ive used them the most after tuesday. If I bend my leg, I lose all my strength in it. My legs do work though, I did P.E very successfully the next day.

My question would be what is this, and should I expect it again? I hope it's over tomorrow.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Well that happened to me the first time I squatted and whenever I would quit squatting and then jump back into it. The first leg workout ends up being intense but after a week I get back into the pace and it doesn't hurt anymore.

I don't think its much, its probably just the fact that you haven't worked out in 2 months. In my experience within a week or 2 you will be around your old weight again and your legs won't hurt.

Btw 70kg or 70lbs?

I had the same exact thing happen to me last week. It was my arms and legs, and ever since then my legs have been really sore lol.
