"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Did a search and gained some good knowledge, but has anybody tried vitamin C in high dose? Such as 3,000mg daily?
 

"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.

Yes especially when sick and I tell you what it helps tons. There's some concrete studies that you can look up on mega dosing vit c and the benefits. Get some from fresh oranges and supplement the rest with tablets (high grade are the best, forgot which form is best when it comes to vit c I'll look it up when I have more time)

I read some of info out there on Vitamin C. Carlito, I see lots of info on the high dosing too. Some folks recommended 6,000mg or more a day! They claim it leads to a happier life in some. Like anything else it has doubters, but overall seems worth it IMO.

The tolerable upper limit according to the USA is 2,000mg for an adult male. With the amount of protein I’ll be taking I think 3,000mg daily will be OK.

Anybody ever try a high dose of it? What’s some of the amounts people here take daily?

The book, “How to live longer and Feel better”, written by a Nobel-Prize-winning chemist, recommended more than 10,000mg daily. Some advocates now believe it’s the cause of a downward trend in US heart disease from the early 1980s on.

Megadosing vitamin C is fine, it might cost a little bit more but for 99% of people it is fine to take over 3g of vitamin C.
 

"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.

The RDA is outdated. Some numbers they give are too high, others too low.

Megadosing vitamin C is not harmful. It's water soluble. If you have too much in your body at one time, you piss it out. Be careful to choose a good brand for supplements. If it's made in China it might have lead and that **** accumulates in the body.

I wish I was joking.

ALA (ala lipolic acid) is useful for chelation therapy. It slowly removes heavy metals from the body (like lead, cadmium)... if you're worried about that sort of thing.

Free radicals offer no benefit. Free radicals damage DNA and cell walls.

That isn't a benefit at all.

Free radicals increase is related to job stress too right?

Vitamin C is water soluble. Meaning if you're worrying about getting to much to hurt yourself, the worst that will happen is that you'll not use the excess and pee it out.
 

"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.

Umm you can't say free radicals are good or bad. Yes too many can damage DNA and cause cancer.... but some are necessary for cell signaling in your body.

You're thinking about the free radicals that occur naturally as a result of your natural metabolism. Those don't last long in the body as they get converted into something else.
Extra free radicals from radiation, weird chemicals and preservatives... etc. Are not natural and your body will not and cannot use them. They are waste and cause damage.

I have take as much as 5 grams a day.

It is generally considered safe to take several grams a day, although it can cause GI upset. It's not really necessary unless you are sick or in a catabolic state--Vit C can mitigate cortisol levels and is also ESSENTIAL for collagen production.

I was told to take Glutamine powder with it.. counter that upset stomach.

And I'm shocked I don't know more ladies taking Vitamin C for the collagen production.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I feel the same way Quicksilver.

After taking in a lot of reading on Vitamin C, plus the input from the post, I feel comfortable taking 3,000mg a day.

Unless they're tainted with heavy metals.

zinc for example will prevent you from falling asleep so don't take it before bed
 

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
