"The Kiss of Death Mistake"
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

"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.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

cunches, is that anytihng to do with lying down with your legs raised off the floor and trying to sit up or somtihng like that? im not really uptodate with all this stuff.

crunches are,
you get in the same position as sit-ups but you only raise your top body about 20% above the floor instead of going all the way up in situps, also put your hands across your pecks instead of behind your head so it puts the strain on your abs and not your neck,
try it mate, it works the abs a lot harder and brings out your 6 pack a lot better than sit-ups

you will find it's harder to do as much as you can do sit-ups, i could only do about 25 when i first did them but i'm upto 150 a day at the minute

when i do 40 press ups its hard for me so it goes quick...
with situps i find it incredibly boring because its hard but not as hard, you do not need to concentrate at all so i find them increadibly boring to do.

"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.

It's the "I Dream of Jeanie" pose.
Are you doing these situps in sets or just 150 reps from beginning to end? Really, sets of 10-20 reps should be enough to exercise your abs. If you're not feeling the strain, try doing them much slower and/or hold a dumbell as you do.
Oh and yes, your shoulders should no hurt. Make sure you tense your muscles and make sure you know you are using your abs to pull you up when doing situps. A lot of people use the wrong muscles in the gym to do their various exercises, and thus, they make slow gains!

Go to skinnyguy.net, click on Mass Tips, then "How to Reveal Your Six-Pack of Abs," or something like that.
you sound like you are doing your sit ups wrong? the reason your neck is sore is probably because your pulling on your neck muscles with your hands behind your head straining your neck, try doing your sit ups with your hands on the side of your head so you dont yank your head forward with each sit up and concentrate on using your abdominals, dont cheat by trying to swing your body up and not using your abs.
I also like to do my sit ups in 125 - 150 sets, I usually do 125 then rest 5 or 10 minutes and do another 125 -150
