"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.

Alright.
- I'm 19 and 5' 8" 145 lbs.
- pubic hair fully out, just started underarm hair, chest hair not yet just a little, facial hair not done yet.
- started bulking diet, and working out.

I've come to the realization that I look like a little boy. I look exactly like this:

http://www.brianmac.demon.co.uk/body2.gif

Ok it's called a mesomorph body type. Thing is I have a long neck and a medium size head. The only way I can look like a man is when I shrug my shoulders up and put my chest out, then it looks better, but I think it's unnatural. When I smile it looks even worse. Like some cute little boy it just pisses me off.

-What kinda clothes should I wear to hide this for the time being?
-Will doing a lot of barbell shrugs improve the long neck to skinny body
ratio?
-What kind of workouts should I do?
-Am I late for puberty to finish? Is this normal? Should I check with the doc?

Obviously girls don't want a little boy. And everyone treats me like a little boy. I want to improve now. It's killing my confidence. I want steriods.
Any suggestions?
 

"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.

Hmm I don't really know how to combat this one, but Im in a similar position.

Im 21,

6foot4...but, no facial hair and very young looking face.

It can be a bit humiliating at times and seriously battered my confidence in my HS years.

I think there are testosterone injections or something doctors can use, but Im not sure if thats only if its delayed puberty...

So you admit to yourself that you are a limp floppy ****.
Now you are desperately asking us what you should do to fix yourself up....

First of all, dont ask stupid afc questions like....
"-What kinda clothes should I wear to hide this for the time being?
-Will doing a lot of barbell shrugs improve the long neck to skinny body
ratio?
-What kind of workouts should I do?
-Am I late for puberty to finish? Is this normal? Should I check with the doc?"

It not only makes you look more like a chump but it doesnt make anybody on this board want to answer your question. Make your questions specific and meaningful.

Now that you have learned this i will respond to your inquiry just because you probably didnt realize how much of a sissy chump you sounded before posting.

If you want to bulk up and gain muscle mass i suggest you:

-Write a workout schedule down foremost (make sure to split the days into different muscle groups and never workout the day after legs.)
-do 7-9 sets per muscle group and 4-6 reps each
- your workouts sohuld be 30-40 minutes no less and no more (if you go past that time limit then you need to change up yoru schedule. There is no reason you should spend more time than that. Doing so is counterproductive to muscle building.)
-8 glasses of water a day
-eat 5 meals a day


These are the basics of a very effective and efficient bodybuilding plan (spoken from experience) ..... the rest are just details.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
