Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single

She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.

You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.

The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.

Hey peoples.

ive seen on some people on boards (me including) that have a problem with excessive sweaty palms / armpits / other
This is a medical condition (dont panic!) called hyperhidrosis.

Its embarrasing, yes.
And dont you just hate hand-shaking,
then seeing the person you hand-shaked recoil and wipe it off on their clothes, as if you had AIDS?
You arent alone, in fact 1% of the entire population has it.
And it is said to be genetically passed down (family thing)

Wikipedia article about it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperhidrosis

My main problem with it is ice-cold, clammy hands at times
(especially during school mass, once a month, which is a catholic school)

There are treatments but you NEED to search for message boards and sites about this thing.
There are side effects that can be worse than living with sweaty palms/face/pits/other
-Ive heard of someone that was paralyzed from surgery, while trying to fix the palms.
-Ive heard of complete dryness on on side of the body, but perspiration on the other.
You get the idea....


What ive found that helps.
-Not pleasuring youself (seriously)
-Getting comfortable with your surroundings. Become out going and have lotsa friends.
-MAxim topical treatment. (search google for "maxim hyperhidrosis")

My story.
When i reached 7th grade I somehow had it.
I musta just woke up one day and every day my pits would be soaking at about 10Am in skool and
my palms were always clammy.
I dediced to search the internets and found some info then found MAxim. MAxim worked perfectally on my pits and about a year later, i didnt need. Now i dont need it at all for my pits. It must be from getting comfortable and reading sites like this.
If i never found it, there is a pretty good chance i would be a outcast and smelly. (sweaty pits are smelly)

-Today- The only problem i have is with my palms, but it doesnt bother me as much because i had it much worse and i think of the people that have things WAAAY worse than you and me combined.

This is not a plug, but an informing page about HH.
You know when someone helps you out, and youre back on your feet, you have the urge to do the same thing that they did for you to another person? thats kinda what im going for here. I want there to be less outcasts, even if theres just that one person...you hear me?

And seriously respect
and dont even presume to understand what its like to have this
if you dont have this at all....
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

That is most likely what I have I wish the mod hadnt closed the thread since no search help me. Anyway, I know exactly what it is like in HS i had mass every week and I hated it for that reason. I will try and look up some info on that maxim stuff, thanks man and welcome to the forum. That stuff on Wikipedia really hit close to home for me especially the part about the Social effects, I think I have hand and a little on the feet hyperhidrosis.

Only online, i think its on some corad healthcare site, but there are others that help too..
Main ingredient is Aluminum Chloride, but its a certain percentage that makes it work.

Thx for welcoming me :D
 

"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.

It might be different with different people.
When i used maxim on hands it didnt have any effect. But maxim is indispensible with the underarm.

I emailed the company and it says it was specially designed for underarms, and it has like a 70% chance of working on hands because the glands are different.

There are other methods of treatment.
Such as:
-Odiban (online site)
-Other topical treatments.
-Surgery (probably not wanted unless as last resort)
-A device that sends small shocks into the pores to disable them
-Botox

Do your research

"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.

No it doesn't hurt that bad, there's a power control built in.
about $139
initially you need about 2 weeks of continous use. then only once a week.

"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.

Before you go to bed, wipe some deodorant/anti-perspirant onto your palms, the same way you would for armpits. Then in the morning, do it again. I used to have this problem and it cleared it right up, not to mention my hands smelled fresh :)

Note: Don't use gel or spray as it does not have the same effectiveness.

Note: It does the job day in, day out, doesn't cost anything, is easy to do, and doesn't have the same risks as some of the other treatments. Fyi this is just what worked for me, might not be enough for everyone.

peace
