"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.

I started bulking 4 days ago.

The first day I worked my chest. I did 3 sets of DB Bench at 3 different inclines, then I did 3 sets of Flys at 3 different inclines.

These are the same excersises I was doing for chest a few months ago when I was bulking, but now, for the last 4 days my chest has been huge. I shouldn't see huge gains after the only the first workout. I don't think I've done anything different than when I was bulking before, but now the outside of my chest is huge and really sore after 4 days.

Also, I know your supposed to take on some fat when you bulk, but this is kinda weird. The line inbetween your pecs where no muscle grows, went from being like 1/2 an inch to now being about an 1 and a 1/2 inches! I think I may have neglected my inner chest when I worked out and now the outside is pulling my pecs apart.

And where the separation between my pecs is, down toward the bottom of my chest, is a good bit of fat. It looks like I have one big pec! lol. Is this normal when your bulking?

I feel like a freak.

Thanks alot fellas.

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

What are your current stats...height,weight, ~bf%?

It sounds to me like you already had a bit of fat when beginning...and bulking will make you put on more fat....If your current body fat is like in the high teens low twenties...I think that you should probably cut...then bulk...

You're a jackass.

Go to a beach sometime and you're bound to see plenty of guys who look like you do.
 

"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.

Oh I'm sorry. You're supposed to look just like everyone else. Everyone looks the same, and because you are different, there must be something wrong with you.

Alright enough of this childish banter.

Soshyopathe,
I didn't know everyone looked like this, I asked a normal question because I was worried I would damage my muscles if I kept up with what I was doing.

It doesn't look like I'm gonna get any mature responses (aside from DJLiquid) so Mods could you please delete this.

Soshyopathe,
I'm sorry kiddo, I have better thing to do than to argue with some kid over the internet. Think about that...
