"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

yeah that's what i figured too.
but, what else is there to eat?
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

You need to be eating the way that is outlined in Effort's "Simple Starting Diet".

Look in Mike's food journal for recipe ideas. It is sticked at the top of the forum.

LOTS of beef and eggs. I didn't see either in your diet today. You need to make an effort if this is going to work.

Seriously, if you have whey, and put raw eggs in your shakes, you won't taste it. Just blend it up real nice with with fruits too if you like (but not at night). It's a bit overwhelming at first but before you know it will be better than the old ways you used to eat...and could teach you how to cook unless you love plain flavors ;)

Do the shoulder press with either dumbbells or a barbell.

What angle is the incline you are using? Make sure it isn't too steep.
 

"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.

i don't know what angle.
it's set at my school's gym, and I can't change it, but it isn't very steep.

also, i think some of the wednesday workouts hurts my shoulder and i have tendonitis there. I heard incline press doesn't hurt you rotator cuff?

Dinner :
3 eggs w/ olive oil
4 fish capsules
veggies
shrimp
musrooms

i know i should've eaten chicken or beef, but after my post workout meal, i just couldn't put much more down. All this food was basically forced into my stomach...

also, i notice that i'm needing to sh1t more often :)

Don't switch to the chest machine. If anything that would be more likely to aggravate the problem.

Drop the barbell and go with dumbbells. Keep things light on chest day for a few weeks and give the problem time to heal.

Dumbbell Incline Press 2 x 8-10
Dips 2 x 10
Shoulder Press 2 x 10 70lb
Tricep Extensions 2 x 10 10lb.

And remember that other exercises could be contributing to the problem. I urge you too try and get videos of your lifts and take on board some of the things I said in the thread you made earlier in the week.
