Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

I have worked patrolling outdoors for 11 years. Mostly night shift. My lips would become dry. I put it down to the cold or perhaps dehydration also.
So I started using lypsol. I've been using lypsol for so many years, it's become normal.
I now work dayshift 9-5. A few weeks ago at work i forgot my lypsol. At the end of the day my lips were flaky and dry and sore. So I went 8 hours, only 8 hours without using lypsol and that was the outcome. Concerning.

Just wondering if anybody can advise?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I was using one called burts bees made of bee honey/wax. Seemed really strong and occasionally they make one with spf. Just alone with burts bee's I would recommend. Rather than normal chapstick. Is lypsol typical chapstick?

Yes, lypsol is chapstick.
What I'm aiming for is to reduce the amount I use it A LOT.
Considering what happened after 8 hours it could be a struggle

Well if a different chapstick won't work. Possibly a scarf could do the trick. Depends if your job allows toggle to the uniform tho...

Give Carmex a try. Works extremely well for me when skiing…
 

"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.

Ok, I might try a different chapstick and maybe try hydrating more. Thanks
