"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Let's see some results....

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
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.

I'm pretty tan,haven't lifted since Noon,it's now 9p.m. I'm trying HARD to develop my outer chest.

*Edit
Sorry about the lighting,a darn light bulb was out in my room,here is a revision.
http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l13/blinkwatt/CopyofPICT0920.jpg
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.

The after pic is me about a year ago. I am 5'9, 175 lbs ish.BF is my biggest concern. I can't stop myself from eating cookies and cakes and chocolates etc. But ofcourse I must add that my goal was just strength and to get big, not ripped , so I wasn't too concerned about BF. If there was a magic pill to reduce it sure why the heck not! But there isn't so its ok.

"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.
Good stuff fellas. I see what your saying about the outside chest region. I've been working on that alot,flys of all sorts and I started doing dips. Yes Espi,I start with 35lb. dumbbells and work up to 45lbs.,but I'm not too big of a fan on dumbbell flys and do them once a month at most now. I prefer to stick to cable or machine flys. It's slowly but surely paying off.
The thing with my chest is that I don't want it to be thick,I want it flat and side. Think underwear model,NOT bodybuilding. Like so;

blink your fine, just keep doing what your doing. Most men would die to have a body like yours.
Hope that didn't sound gay lol.
Here's a pic of me. One thing...I'm 39 years old, but I still think I'm 22.

"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.
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.
Thanks for the input Espi.

how much do you weigh and how tall are you?blinkwatt said:
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. I bet you look just average in a t-shirt. You have any t-shirt pics? Otherwise, everything is proportioned and you look great
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.
