"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Post workout and alcohol?

I'm very tempted to take some alcohol the next day after I've done a heavy back workout. Not a lot, just a little to help me sleep.

Anybody know what's the worst that could happen?
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

Your testosterone levels will drop, protein synthesis will be inhibited, and your metabolism will be slowed down to name a few things off the top of my head.

try melatonin. you can buy it from wal-mart in the supplement/vitamin section for cheap. melatonin is naturally released in your brain to responses in changes of light. I have tried it and after 35 minutes on an empty stomach I had a hard time keeping my eyes open. No other side effects besides that. Good stuff.

That practically negates the heavy back workout. Damnit!:mad:
 

"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.

alcohol will do that, however i am unsure if one drink before bed will do so significantly, or if one drink before bed will help you sleep.

i would look into some relaxation techniques first. they are going to give you a more restful sleep anyway.

they say alcohol is good for you, if you do one drink like every day or so. One beer will help you fall asleep, its my favorite form of nyquil. Just make sure you are hydrated and eating ok and 1 beer won't have any noticable effects on you

You couldn't be more wrong. Island, if you want to sleep well I recommend taking ZMA.

a glass of wine is supposed io be healthy because of its antioxidants, and some doctors recommend a glass every day for insomnia patients. id recommend you find another way.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

all i know is i drank like crazy last semester while taking cell tech, and i went from 185 lbs to 220 lbs. My bench went from 240 to 290. Thats the only thing i maxed in but everything went up, even thoguh i was gettign trashed all weekend. If you are really serious, don't drink, but i honestly think 1 won't hurt. Read a book before bed, books are amazing at getting you to sleep.
