"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.

Curious if there is anything I can take, eat drink whatever for more energy during the day. I work 70 hours a week and by hour 9 Im exhausted, can barely see straight, feel like a zombie etc. And then I go home and basically pass out to do it over the next day.

I dont really like energy drinks like red bull or monster, they make me feel like crap. Wondering what I can do?
 

"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.

What age are you? What is your health like? You ever had blood checks/ a medical done before? What is your diet like? Need a bit more information.

If you are in bad shape I'd say fix that and then if you still feel **** its time to go to the doc.

The symptoms you describe aren't really taken away by a miracle "pill" etc, usually you need to actually put some effort in to see results.

Of course overworking could cause exhaustion/depression etc...

need to know some more about your job, b/c different types place different demands on your body...

the only 70+ hour/wk jobs were always highly physical, and fortunately, short term (usu. summer jobs)

Probably:
a) not eating enough
b) not eating enough of the right foods (e.g. low GI carbs if you are on a carb diet)

long hours on a physical job need a high input of quality calories.
