"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.

I have been trying affirmations and positive thinking for the past few days now and have been experiencing good things - not just in life... but in lifting too!

I think the reason I haven't been making as good progress, as I could have, is down to the fact that I just had a negative attitude when going to the gym. My lifts had been stagnating for so long that I just went to the gym for the sake of going and keeping what muscle I had gained.

I also just thought that the weight I was lifting in any given exercise is what I'll be stuck on til something happens which is beyond my control... but not so!

Over the past few days I've noticed that with my new attitude and affirmations (I am STRONG and POWERFUL... I am full of ENERGY) I have increased the reps on about 95% of all my sets so far!

Granted, some of the increases have just been one or two reps extra but today I added another 2.5kg on my Incline Bench Press and repped 7, 6 & 4 compared to last week's lift on the same exercise minus 2.5kg with 7, 6, 5.

So, to sum it up, try positive thinking and REALLY believe what you are saying and feel that new-found energy surging through your body!

Happy lifting!
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"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.
