"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.

Any of you guys ever get physiotherapy? Some goddam doctor recommended I go for it because of my fvcked up knee. Nothing showed up on the x-rays. Is there any benefit to Physio?

I'm skeptical, and I have a feeling they're sending me there because I'm "too young" to have anything wrong with me.
 

"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.

Go for it. A doctor is not the man to ask in this case; he was right to refer you to a physiotherapist. A good chiropractor/ARTherapist is golden. Get yourself checked out and see what's up.

And squat below parallel. ;)

I'd squat, but my goddam knee is too fvcked up. That's why I haven't got into working out my lower body. The exercise bike and walking is painful enough.

Thanx, that gives me a better outlook on the whole physiotherapy thing.

Anyone else get this stuff done?

sounds like something's wrong man. if there's nothing broken (i.e. the xray shows up okay) then it's some nerve/muscle damage which can be rectified with ART or the like. I shouldn't sweat it.

I second that statement. My chiropracter has a background in sports specific rehab. Between him and the occupational therapist I was seeing chronic problems that had lasted 7 years (but I just gritted through with willpower and painkillers) were virtually eliminated in a few months.

The longer you leave it, the longer it takes for the body to revert back to normal function. Trust me I know, been there done that.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

physiotherapy is another name for physical therapy, what is wrong with your knee, in my experience a good PT can help tremendously with knee problems if you stick to the exercises and coupled with a good ART therapist and your knee will be better in no time.
