"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.

I just started working out a couple of weeks ago and the day after my workouts i have been noticing no pain or stiffness.
This normal or do i not have a strenuous enough exercise.

If you have only been training that short period of time dont worry about it. You should be practicing the movements and learning technique. So maybe you are training lightly so as not to get sore which is fine when learning the exercises. Gradually start to up weight and intensity from here on and see if you get sore then. Most people only get sore when intensity is upped to over and above what the body is used to. Doesnt necessarily have an effect on gains - certainly not strength gains.

it is really too hard to say whats going wrong or why you are in pain

but the usual reasons ppl feel pain with their workout is that

1) their form is very bad

2) usually their form is bad b/c the weight they are using is too hign but it doesnt seem to be in your case

3) most ppl do not stretch b4 and after workout
i know that i used to hate working out b/c of how i would feel a day or so after id leave the gym, jus simple streches of the body parts you are working b4 and and after you workout can make the difference

4) another possibility may be that lactic acid is building up in your body. It is always good to get on the tread and walk for 5min and then do a fast jog for 5min. It gets your heart goin

Ok so even if you dont feel pain or stiffness the next day doesnt mean your exercise isnt working.
 

"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.

No pain doesn't mean its not working. When I first started working out I felt stiff as well and my instructor said I would. But your muscles get used to it.

Now I can tell when I'm not working out ENOUGH because I'll get that pain back again. It took me about 3 weeks (I think) to loose the pain when I first started but now it doesn't take that long when I come back from not working out for a while.
