"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'm alittle confused at some things..First of all I have started to lift weights(15 years old)I weigh 170,6 foot. People at my school are already lifting weights.
Should I start lifting heavily now or just lift moderately?All I do is pushups and run. I would do 500 pushups monday-friday, then 1000 saturday and sunday, then skip a week ..so on. I also eat alot, thats what my friends say. Iwould eat around 7-12 meals a day :( Im pretty sure im not fat.My question is, should I start lifting weights alot now or wait until im alittle older?FYI, at my school freshman are lifting 220-290... I lift 245..And also what type of foods should I eat, and one more thing, should i use protien shakes or anything in that general area?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

what kind of lifting are you talking about? :eek:
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Espi makes a very good point.

And you lift 245 at 15? Is this right down to the chest and using free weights? And you haven't done any proper training?

If so, you are a FREAK. (In a good way).
