"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Here is a suggestion to doing arm curls more consistently.

A while back I bought a set of hand dumbbells but found my use rather spotty. They say you should put lifting / exercise into your daily routine. Recently I put one of the dumbbells under the computer desk. Now when I sit down to use the internet, I can reach down and pull a few curls while things upload.
 

"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.

Good idea to add some new exercises to your web surfing routine besides the normal jerk and cleans.

Jerk and clean...

BWAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Funniest thing I've heard all day.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Should you curl every day?

NO... unless you wanna wake up the next morning with your arms frozen in the postion you fell asleep in. Its quite exilliarating to stretch a torn muscle out little by little. Do tricep curls the opposit days. Put the dumbell over you head (I usually cup one half of it in both my hands and hang it behind my head) and lift horizontally.

Um... yeah, I know all about the exercise known as the clean and jerk. Clean and jerk = lift. Jerk and clean = wank. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been particularly funny, now, would it?
