"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.

Veiny arms (and I'm not even that muscular)

I'm just a little muscular, still on the skinny side, but my veins already show. I'm worried about my veins showing even more once I get big. If there already showing now and I'm still skinny, isn't it going to be worse once I'm more muscular? I hear girls are really grossed out by veiny muscles.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

It's all basically about bodyfat and genetics. What's your bf%? I know some fairly muscular guys who had veins sticking out even when they were skinny.

Mate, considering all the disgusting things that happens to girls, no one's really gonna give a **** about a vein or two sticking out of your arm. That's just missing the big picture...besides, lots of girls particularly like vascularity

What does it matter...you start seeing too many veins eat as many cakes, twinkies, chips, and candy til you get fatter. You can control your body. Granted its not the healthiest way to do it lol
 

"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.

Start supplementing with creatine, it will cause you to retain more water and start to make the veins less visible. You could just be dehydrated and not getting enough carbs.

If other members of your family show vascularity then there's a good chance you will, too. And women do tend to like veins on guys because it's a sign on health and vitality. You'd be surprised. It usually becomes a problem for guys who have veins popping out all over their body, just as most women like toned to muscular guys so long as they don't overdo it. But if you're working out just to attract women then you're weight training for the wrong reasons IMO.

hahaha, i don't have a lot of veins so i get really excited when i'm in the gym pumping some iron and i see a semi new vein or an existing vein get bigger... i start tensing it and try to will more blood into it or something...quite a comic sight i'd say.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

When you do heavy deadlifts or rows, or any exercise where you need grip strength, chances are that you get crazy veins on your hands. Mine are nearly one centimeter wide.
