"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.

With the deadlift my hands should be around shoulder length or just a little bit bigger right? Oh and at the end pull your shoulders back for a few seconds, right?

and in regards to the squat my shoulder blades should be pulled back to tense the back correct?
 

"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.

Another question about deadlifts. When starting the deadlift motion, should I feel such a strain on my knees, or is that not right? It's not terrible, but it just makes me wonder if that should be there.

what do you mean by strain on the knees? the deadlift motion is initiated with the hips (leg drive) yes. does it hurt your knees?

I dunno, I just feel a lot of pressure on the knees at the very beginning of the lift. It doesn't really hurt.
 

"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.

You're likely pushing from the balls of you feet. push from the heels. lift your toes if you have to

Or are your knees buckling in or out and the pain is on the sides?
