"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.
My friend is the toughest for his weight.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Yeah, I know a dude names Mike Mahler who, at 6'0 and 185, bench pressed 365 pounds (he's a martial arts and kettlebell master, I'm not sure if he still benches or not). Not only is he not a juicer, he's a VEGAN. Go to www.mikemahler.com to find out about him. He's a strength coach based out of Santa Monica.Originally posted by marketboy
My friend weighs 220 and benches 350. He is also athletic, very fast.
He doesn't use roids or anything. I think he has the potential to be one of the toughest people.
Does anyone know anyone more impressive? (I don't mean professionals who take roids either)

The reason I post about him is because I think he has the greatest ability. I mean come on, being 6'3 220 and being able to put up 350 its like damn...... He is cut up too, has like a 6 pack.
Also he is European, it kind of bothers me that no Americans out there can compete. I was hoping to get some responses to see if I was wrong, but so far Im not.
"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.
He'd kill your friend with "hiya" and a chop to the jugular.
He was also very short.
Your friend is strong, but your preaching to the wrong audience, Ned.
But based on just physical attributes, my friend is much more impressive.
Next??????

See how stupid this is? My daddy can beat up your daddy!
Geez. Just let this thread die the death it was supposed to and stop bringing it back, market... with all due respect, nobody here cares how big and bad your friend is or isn't.
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Bruce Lee has trained for several years and is able to get everything out of his body. He has studied combat and dedicated his life to it. My friend has not.
But based on just physical attributes, my friend is much more impressive.
Next??????
Did you happen to see the sarcasm in my post?
Go get a ****ing life you ****.
I just wanted to see if we are witnessing something out of the ordinary in this kid.

Can your "friend" beat THAT, marketboy?
That's what I thought.
I win.

you seriously think so? firstly the SAS are a small unit, so thats like saying only a few of these guys could bench 300, secondly and more important is that these guys are in top shape, they are among the best of the best. They can go for months in the jungle convering like 500km a week, they go through extreme conditions they are at a peak pf physical fitness they climb up the most ruggid terain and you do not think that even 2% could bench 300? im sure the majority could and would be suprised if in actual fact there where any of them that could not.Originally posted by Alpine
Look at the SAS guys, I bet only about 2% could bench 300, but so what.
