"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Quora question: Can I increase testosterone naturally?

"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.

I think it's funny how so many guys out there are guzzling butter, coconut oil and steak because a bunch of bros are saying it raises testosterone. Enjoy the heart attack, guys.

I think the T problem can be solved with 3 steps:

1 - better sleep
2 - deadlifts/squats
3 - eat some nuts

Competitive sports have also been shown to raise T. I'd bet anything that has exertionand adrenaline like a a karate class would also do it

Lift weights. No fap (or much less fap). Approach/date around (no exclusivity).
Along these same lines - cut out the porn. It's a killer for T-levels. That's in my own experience, and I think it's been researched as well.

I'll give my standard warning for the older guys. Too infrequent ejaculation is a risk factor for prostate cancer. Evidently seman has a shelf life and can go bad. So if you are on a dry spell I would suggest cleaning the pipes once every two weeks.
 

"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 honestly don't think I'll ever have this problem. At the moment, I'm getting some p*ssy or rubbing one out every other day. It's going to be near impossible for me to go 2 weeks.

Stop doing the knuckle shuffle, eat meats, avoid soy, exercise, build muscle. Don't drink a lot of beer, don't do a lot of weed and you can increase your testosterone. However, it is also based partly on your family genome. That, you cannot influence without hard drugs like HGH and stuff.

How do you know if your T levels are high or low without going to a doctor (I'm not wasting my time doing that)?

I've always had a feeling I might be lacking, only because I was raised by a women, lots of women in my family and I am quite sensitive/emotional at times. My voice is also softer than I look like it should be. I have no problem attracting women though and I have a very high libido.

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Man, that's the opposite of the No Fap guys. Figuring out what to believe can be a dilemma.

I believe its not just test itself but how receptors grab it, you can have the most efficient mail delivery system with hundreds of postmen but if the receiver sleep instead of opening the door, there may be a problem.

We know some people is sensitive to DHT in terms of hairloss cause their scalp receptors are very active, yet no one tought about receptors in the rest of the body being more or less responsive.

Philosophically I agree with the no fap guys but hey that gives you two weeks to find a girl to shag. The problem is the study didn't say what the shelf life was so maybe once a month would be okay. Anyway I can't imagine once every two weeks would be psychologically or physically debilitating. But yes obviously finding a girl would be much much better. Preferably finding several girls.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0302283816003778

That is a follow-up study looking at the original findings in the light of a decade of further research. Basically they found more squirting equals a happier prostate. The science looks pretty solid and prostate cancer risk rises with age so I'd suggest older members take this advice if in a dry spell.

Conclusions
These findings provide additional evidence of a beneficial role of more frequent ejaculation throughout adult life in the etiology of PCa, particularly for low-risk disease.
