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.
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.
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Do you mean a normal diet as in a bulking diet? If so I totally agree with you.on a normal diet, staying under 100 grams fat is fine.
Ive made the experience that if u wanna cut the best thing to do is to avoid fat like the plague. I used to take in about 2500-3000 calories when I cut down with fat at about 30g per day. When I tried to cut down with the same amount of calories but wasnt strict about the fat part I hardly would get any results if I did get any at all.I know nuts are high in protein and have essential fatty oils, but they have so much fat.
Are the benefits of nuts like peanuts and almonds worth adding to my diet while i'm cutting?
I didnt say that. I kinda agree with you that the main reason a lot of people get fat is that they eat too many bad carbs (I guess u said that earlier). Fat is another reason though. The less fat you eat the faster youll be able to decrease your bf.madgame, dietary fat is not the reason most people get fat.
Don't cut off your nuts...Originally posted by stormwriter
What's the verdict on nuts and cutting?
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.
I know counting calories is the most important part when it comes to decreasing your bodyfat. You need a calorie deficit. (If you eat too much fat, you risk not to have a calorie deficit, cause one gram of fat has like 9kcal whereabout a gram of protein/carbs has way less.) Is that your point?" The less fat you eat the faster youll be able to decrease your bf."
False
Not always true. The ratio of macronutrients are more important that counting calories.Originally posted by madgame

They are both of equal importance. If you take in too many calories you won't lose weight. If you get your macronutrient ratios screwed up you can lose too much muscle.Originally posted by California Love

Im sorry, but Im not quite sure what exactly a macronutrient ratio is. Do you mean the percentage of carbohydrates/protein/fat your nutrition consists of? That'd be correct I guess.(Maybe I should of added that you should also eat enough protein while you`re on a diet, in order not to lose muscle)They are both of equal importance.

I just said counting calories was the most important part cause -k2 said I was wrong when I said the less fat u eat the faster ull be able to decrease your bf, which made me think he thought I said it was all about the fat u eat and not about the calories. If your diet is supposed to be working(in other words if u wanna lose fat and not muscle tissue) you need a calorie deficit, little fat, high/enough protein. Correct me if Im wrong.
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
