"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.

Two month ago I was getting sharp pains in my lower back, this was after having knee problems so I have had enough of training. I've trained my whole life. I'm not willing to risk my health anymore. My friend who I trained with has just found out he has slipped vertrabraes in the back, likely due to bodybuilding.

Over the last few years I've had the mentality of the warrior - push through the pain, don't be a wussy. Rest for warriors is to train. Well I've had enough so I haven't trained now for two months.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

You can walk... It doesn't and shouldn't always be pushing thru pain or at the highest intensity. Some of us are strong "enough", like literally way stronger than we need to be, and while we can raise it up some more, whats the point? Plus if we are lucky enough not to be injured and have intact good joints ( knock on wood )...

I loved training, but have to admit I feel free now & not training has given me free time to do important other stuff like working on my house.

You didn't love training then, did you.

I get fricking depressed when i cant train because of an injury or some such.
 

"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.
