"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.

hey guys, i heard someone say the other day that a high carbs diet will make you tired. is this true? does high carbs lead to low energy levels and sleepiness?
 

"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.

Its actually the opposite. Atkins diets are good for some people, but not most. Not eating any carbs wilil make you very tired. People are just too stupid to realize this :rolleyes:

Sugars will crash your system and make you tired.

No carbs at all will keep you lethargic... for a while, then your body will get a bit used to it, and you'll feel clean, but you won't have a massive store of energy.

Playing with carbs is a good learning experience I think. I believe everyone should go on a no carb or very low carb (all carbs) diet for a lil while... feel what it does to them, and how your body reacts when you eat sugars... and how eating complex carbs keeps you stable.

People need to learn to listen to their bodies!
