"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I remember hearing some people being told they are wrong when they said thta after excersize their six pack looks more defined. You muscles do not grow straight away it takes time to see more definition.

I have seen this happen aswell and whilst any one who says your muscles cant grow straight away, is correct, people who say muscles look bigger are also correct!

Darker skin makes you muscles look more define. Excersize makes your body overheat and your veins dilate bringing blood ot the surface to cool off. Whilst it is most obvious on your face, it happens on your body aswell. If you are white it will make your skin look as if you are slightly darker, so even tohu your muscles are still the same size, they do in fact look more defined after exercise (regardless of whether or not you exercised those particular muscles)

^ I dunno about that




2 main contributing factors are
1. "Pump" as mentioned above, which is just masive increased blood flow to the affected muscles, and, also
2. Lactic acid created from working the muscles that hasnt yet got flushed out yet

Actually, it's called muscular hypertrophy.
 

"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.

Some of these posts are scary. If you don't know what you're talking about, sometimes it's best to keep your mouth shut.

It's exactly as MetalFortress said. Targeted muscles are engorged with blood due to that muscles need for extra oxygen when under stress. It's usually referred to as a 'pump'.

It is not hypertrophy. Hypertrophy comes later, as the muscle begins to repair.

It is most definitely nothing to do with tanned skin or flushed skin or whatnot.

In future lets try and keep H&F topics reasonably scientific - guessing alone is seldom grounds to lodge an 'informative' topic.

Allright e-tough guy......

Made a mistake......no need for that.
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
