"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.

Props to the tosser that knocked off the last thread :rolleyes:. Suave!

Anyway this is mainly directed at warboss - I noticed you say red meats are better as far as complete amino acids, etc.

Now as Mince beef is roughly twice the cost of tuna, with pork mince being significantly less than the beef, which would you advise of the two? Or 100% bacon pieces? Are there any major negative points on eating 500g of pork mince/bacon pieces as opposed to beef?

Trying to switch things around a little.
 

"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.

Fantastic, love your work :up:

With the saturated fat content of pork, eating 500g a day may then not be such a good idea... unless I bring George Foreman into the equation.

I'd like to say that saturated fat doesn't completely deserve its bad rep but I won't.

I'd get lean mince, or pork chops and hack the fat off, or whatever. A little saturated fat won't kill you if you want some variety.

Mix up your protein sources, 200g pork, 200g tuna, cottage cheese, whey .. fairly cheap sources.

For sure, if you can tell me with good reason 100g saturated fat a day isn't a worry, then i'll have no problem with it. Just that it looks a tad much on paper. And as long as there is no difference in the protein content/make up of pork and beef mince, then i think we have a winner when the ole wallet is feeling a tad tight.
 

"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.

100g of saturated fat isn't what I'd call a little! For a start, it's 900 calories, and there are better sources if you want to source that much from fat.

What I was getting at it is that you can't totally shun foods which have saturated fat in them, for example beef and eggs because you'd be left with an extremely bland, unsustainable diet (chicken breasts, tuna, egg whites.. which is precontest food for a bodybuilder)

Besides, the body NEEDS some saturated fat, so don't sweat it if you have some - but don't take 100g in either.

Try to get extra-lean meat.. a bit more expensive but worth it. 10% fat or under is fine in my opinion - plus take all the other precautions, i.e. rinsing and removing visible fat.
