"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

$18.99 for 100 omega-3 fish oil tablets?? $20.00 for a 35 oz container of creatinine? Why do supps cost so much? I'd do better getting my omega-3 from tuna fish.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

$20 for 100 tablets (presumably 1 gram) is way too much. do a search here, we've been talking about this endlessly, and everyone has an opinion on the matter.

getting some omega-3 from tuna fish and o-3 eggs is a great idea, and cost effective.
 

"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.

is the omega-3 hidden in the egg whites or the yolk? usually I ditch the yolk and just stick with the egg whites but I'd like to add some omega-3 in my diet.
Should I eat the entire egg for omega-3?

"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 get the cheapo stuff from wal-mart and so far I can complain. That is unless someday I'm diagnosed with mercury poisoning.

according to a site that simon linked to, walmart's should be okay. in fact, most of the problems I've seen are attached to fancy-sounding overpriced brand names.

The Carlson Laboratories fish oil are supposedly the best but veryhigh priced.I just bought the solaray salmon oil but found out from a report that they are tainted w/mercury...back to the Sam's club fish oil for now.
