Jesse Marunde is one of the strongest people around. Check his site for more of his lifts.
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.

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.

Seconded. I'm a big fan.stronglifts said:Jesse Marunde is one of the strongest people around. Check his site for more of his lifts.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
No sacrifice,no victory.djtdot said:I can't stop myself from eating cookies and cakes and chocolates etc.

The lady at the gym who checked my bodyfat said the calipers read 7.5-8%(they have a 1-2% margin of error) but she thinks it's wrong. The calipers don't take into account height,which she thinks if it did I would be in the 6% but none-the-less I'm gonna stay on track.
I decided that I'm losing bodyfat too fast,even without cardio. To slow down how fast I'm losing bodyfat I started putting my tuna into 2 small corn tortillas for lunch at work.
Feel free to critique.
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.
Yeah I will have to take a similar pic to really the compare the two. My pic was at too much on an angle.Espi said:You resemble the model...notice that his lats and shoulders are wider, though.![]()

haha but don't get me wrong u look a lot better than meblinkwatt said:how much do you weigh and how tall are you?
5 8",139lbs @ 7.5%ish bodyfat.
you definitely need some more mass on your frame. Sure you got some abs... but those are only good for the beach in the summer time.
Yep,that's pretty much all they do. I don't even like my abs that much to be honest,I'm trying anything and everything to get them to be flat.
I bet you look just average in a t-shirt.
Yeah pretty much,I don't wear tight shirts or anything like that.
You have any t-shirt pics?
Yeah they are on my Facebook,it was linked on here awhile back.
Otherwise, everything is proportioned and you look great
Thanks.
I appreciate your time and input.
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
