"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Ever since I got a nasty boxers fracture on my knuckle a month ago, I've been in a cast and haven't been able to work out. I still have 2 weeks left.

I started out being like 6'0, 175 and now I'm not even 165! Is that too scrawny for 6'0? Better not be skinny to attract girls because I'm getting okay at dealing with them now. It would be a f*cking shame if I missed out on good opportunities because I'm being robbed of my weight.

I still have definition in the arms but I just look skinnier. It's bullsh*t. Even my friend told me I was noticeably losing weight. I hope I don't look like a scrawny prick when I'm done.

Hey can I eat a lot and run a lot as a good substitute for lifting weights. It's very important that I get back above 170. I think I've been eating less too. Any good excercises that I can do in a cast?
 

"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.

I took two weeks off a couple of months ago when some relatives came into town to visit. I only lost 1 pound during the entire time.

Keep your diet at 7 meals per day and you should be able to maintain.

It all comes down to diet, stress levels, and sleep.

Does not getting a lot of sleep result in losing a lot of weight? For the past few months I haven't been getting that much sleep because I've been staying out too late.

Most of it is probably diet. Relax though, I was 6' 165 when I started and I looked fine.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Thin guys have to maintain regular sleep as it is then that the majority of muscle growth occurs. If you're depriving yourself of the necessary 8 hours sleep then your body will...um...do **** that makes you thinner. According to Anthony Ellis anyway.

Keep good hours and keep a good diet and you should be able to keep your body at equillibrium.
