I was playing tennis yesterday and I was screwing around at the end.. My friend threw me the ball and I took a swing at it like a baseball. As I swung the racket up with my left hand I felt something pull on my upper arm.. It's in between my deltoid and tricep.. Can I put a wrap on it and still lift at the gym?
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"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.
I highly recommend AGAINST doing that.
Rest it for a few days, then CAREFULLY test it (low weight, low stress). If you have any discomfort at all, lifting can worsen the issue exponentially. Don't make a 2 week injury turn into a 4 month injury.
If you don't see improvement from rest, see a doctor.

I pulled my delt in a powerlifting competition back in high school. It was my right delt and I did it whilst maxing out on the benchpress. I saw the athletic trainers for a week full of resistance band work and stretches. No lifting with it for a week or two. It wasn't that bad to recover from and yes I started training delts after that accident.
"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.
