"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.

I've started working out with some advice from a gym instructor friend online.
I've just got a set of dumbells and have been doing upper body work.
I'm really enjoying the rapid results. I don't have a 'before' photo, but trust me, I was a lot smaller.
Thought I'd share my progress, although I'm probably skinny as hell compared to the rest of you guys here.

I'm also enjoying the high protein, high carbs diet for bulking.

I haven't joined the gym yet.
I intend to next month if my post grad course isn't too pressing.
 

"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.

Okay, I just breathed a huge sigh of relief, for a terrible minute there I thought you were gonna show us a picture of your arse, blister and all.

Congratulations on the progress, it's a very good start. You've put the base down, now use your results as motivation to progress. You're also fairly lean, another big advantage - diet and cardio intelligently and you can pack on size with minimal expansion of the old waistline.

Congratulations, keep it up! Next time I want a quad and/or back shot though! Upper body malarkey, pfft ...

Thanks Warboss Alex :)

I REALLY want to hit the gym, but my post grad cause is incredibly important for my future.
I just have to wait it out for a couple of weeks.

It's torture, because my friend has convinced me I can be HUGE and I want to be HUGE.
He said something about 'mesomorphic' -?
