"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.
lots of protein, kidneys hurt

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Anyway, I believe protein has nothing to do with it, can you tell us your diet? It could be MANY reason.
You know don't assume it is the protein.
How long have this pain gone?
Have you been consuming this much protein consistently? (taking 100 today and 80 the next day don't count!!)
It'll go away. If it is, I hear rumor say it could be kidney stone.
I don't have to be at school until late, so I just have a protein shake for breakfast (20 grams of protein.)
About two hours later I go out to lunch and have some steak. (60 grams of protein)
When I come home I have another protein shake.
For dinner I have some chicken (40 grams).
Like i said before, I think its psychosomatic.

Excellent! He's right, protein needs water to be digest. No water=no protein being digest=waste of protein.
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

When protien gets metabolized, it gets broken down into toxic byproducts--one of them being amonia. This, in turn, causes both your liver and kidneys to work overtime to eliminate all that crap out of your body. Ulitmately, your liver and kidneys are going to fail due to the stress that you placed upon it.
Some people on the Atkins diet have also experinced similar problems as well making complaints that thier kidneys hurt after being on a high protien diet.
I think that the amount of protien is just too much for you. And remember that toomuch protien in your diet can lead to liver and kidney damage.
Anyway 1 gram of protein per lb of body weight isn't very high at all. I take 2 grams of protein per lb of body weight everyday and I've done that for the majority of a year and had no pain. Still that doesn't mean it's not affecting you.
I do think more water is needed and drink it whenever you can. If it still hurts after a few days of drinking a lot more water then cut back by 20 or so grams and see if that helps.
I've in the past have consumed up to 400 grams in one day and felt fine BUT I always had about a BIG glass full of water by my side.
