"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'm going to have to do the dreaded cardio pretty soon, so I need help deciding on which choice between the two might have the most minimal effects in terms of muscle loss.

Re:

Wow, that's interesting. And I always thought jogging on the street (pavements, to be specific) would cause you to lose more muscle than the elliptical, since jogging is known to make people skinny and lean. Either way, I think I'll stick with the "fat burn" option on the elliptical because the weights are right nearby, so I can immediately lift after that...whereas I don't have that option in my neighborhood.

I believe Effort meant for you to do the elliptical, not that it burned more muscle.

If you are losing muscle while trying to lose fat you simply don't know how to diet. You should be gaining strength throughout your dieting, if not lean mass also (depending on how aggressive your diet is).

running on the streets is hard on the knees, so I prefer bike or elliptical.
 

"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 love the elliptical. My feet seem to be really sensitive so running makes them hurt easily. I'm sure I have decent running shoes and I'm wearing insoles and they still get sore. Plus I get blisters or something because I loose skin on the bottom of my big toes when I jog.

So anyways I do the elliptical for about 25 min three times a week.

These questions are so silly.
Eat right and lift right and don't sweat losing mass from cardio.

Re:

I ask these questions out of genuine curiosity, TeflonMcGee. Not trying to be silly here at all. As far as cardio goes, whether you're doing the elliptical or running on the street, aren't you bound to sweat and at least lose some muscle mass either way? It's hard in my opinion to avoid ending up sweating when you do cardio in general.

are you being intentionally obtuse? he meant stop worrying, not stop (literally) sweating.

moderate quantities of cardio do not eat muscle, and sweating certainly doesn't either.
 

"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.
