"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.

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.

that's the most common place, you probably won't get them anywhere else. They go away after a while.

Cocoa Butter

I believe I heard cocoa butter might be a remedy for it. There is also a ton of stuff at the drug store for this stuff all over the counter stuff. Check it out. Stretch Marks are also genetic too. Women have a chance of never getting them even after having kids.

I have horrible stretch marks all over my quads. I didn't notice them until it was too late. Now my quads look like a white and purple tiger.

However, I'm gonna keep my leg routine as intense as it is. Stretch marks will go away eventually, and I'm gonna bust my ass for as long as I can.

Stretch marks are caused by the skin stretching beyond its limits (thus the title). Because of this, it is severely damaged.

Stretch marks aren't just red lines, they are scars from your skin not being elastic enough to support the size.

7 months with cocoa better will make them invisible (so says many pregnent women). I doubt yours (males) are half as bad as a pregnent womens are... All the way up the stomach, lines. It's hideous.

Get your mom/female friend/girlfriend/sister to buy you some stretch mark "cream" for pregnent women who have gotten them. These ladies go into the store demanding it. I'd imagine you'd find something that works or they'd be obliterated by a stampede of angry moms wanting their "beauty back"

You'll hear "stretch marks will never go away". Is this true? Sort of. If the stretch mark is invisible, who gives a crap? We're not scientists, we're men, in the event that we care about the way that portion of our body looks (due to scars) we will make them go away visually, and be done with it...

Will they fade away? They'll go from red/purple to a color very similar to your skin tone... So in essence, they do.

Will a tan help? Yeah, of course.

Need a real quick solution? If you need to hide um or something, chicks use makeup to hide um. You can always do that I suppose.

Men sweat this out heavy sometimes, because they can be rather unattractive. Just find some creams and stuff, take care of it. Big deal? Nah, nothing you can't handle -- if you take the time and read up on it.
