"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

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.

I am trying to avoid any form of aerobic exercise as I try and gain weight and weightlift.

Quick one- Will swimming on a regular basis help me tone up or make me lose weight which I don't want?

Cheers.
 

"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.

Swimming - more or less like running do help you lose weight.
It's a great exercise either way though.

You might want to battle that by eating more cals.

Well swimming is one of the best cardio exercises...
My opinion is that you should focus on bulking up as much as you can, then, cut with swimming! a member once told me that it is even a good thing to do cardio while bulking up so... :S

Resistance & sufficient protein is the proper way to bulk and incremental resistance doesn't have to be limited to weightlifting..

But, thinking about resistance: You can't exactly add progressively more molasses to the pool so it gets harder to swim in, but you could just swim faster, or HIIT-style.
