"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I see in many of your meal plans a number of you have beef/veggies as an option. Well first off I don't know how to cook much. When you guys are eating veggies is it just like canned corn or peas because thats the only thing I can think of to cook.
 

"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.

make a salad, best and easiest option. Doesn't need to be huge.

1) a rice cooker with a steamer attachment.
2) frozen broccoli / cauliflower

Drizzle a little bit of olive oil and salt and pepper to flavor. Delicious snack.

btw if you boil veggies don't do it too long, it sucks out all the good nutrients and vitamins you want out of them.

Someone mentioned salads, salads are an excellent choice. You can put pretty much and veg and/or fruit in them. I like to sub spinach for lettuce sometimes.

Also, you can add vegies to your sanwhiches, pretty simple.
 

"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.

Dude don't be such a lazyass! :crackup:

Personally, I would stay away from canned. Fresh are...fresh, which is about as good as it gets...frozen are pretty good, right up there, most are flash frozen and minimally processed...the only thing is, fresh veggies are the cheapest, lb per lb. Get a wok or a large pan, heat up olive oil and throw on your veggie or veggies of choice and cook them slowly and season as you see fit, salt, pepper, garlic, etc....I would hesitate to even call this cooking! At the most this will take you 10-15 minutes and you can even make a surplus and store the rest as left-overs. Don't make a habit of canned corn.
 

"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.

yeh but only b/c people expect cooking to be hard. it's not, or rather, it doesn't have to be. ain't rocket science.
