"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.

Sup guys, have a question. I have this loose skin/muscle under my arm. When i lift my arm, it looks like i have big tricep muscle,(good part) but when i wiggle my arm, it wiggles too(bad part)....its so embarrasing lol, but no one has seen it, also when i have my arms down my side... it looks like i got a sort of fatty arm, lol. So, if i keep working out, like my tricepts, biceps, etc. will real muscle replace that? THANKS!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

If you just lost 100 lb of fat it's skin, but otherwise it's probably fat. Unfortunately you can't spot reduce fat the same way you can build muscle. If you lose fat, eventually you'll lose that arm fat with how soon depending on your genetics. Just be glad you're not like me - if you looked at my arms, chest, and legs you'd think I have ~8% BF, but in reality I'm closer to 13% because the last fat for me to lose is in my gut and sides :(

Fifteen years old with granny arms, that's rough. Luckily you're still young enough to tighten things up. Work your tricepts with exercises like dips; results are relitively fast, you don't need weights and they can be done almost anywhere.
