"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.

Whey in oatmeal?

Would whey protein lose any effectiveness if mixed with oatmeal rather than in some kind of drink or shake (since liquids are probably easier to assimilate)?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

No not at all. Actually it's a good idea to help keep the protein in your system longer since oatmeal is slow burning. There should be some articles on that at bodybuilding.com.

"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.

Whats your guys opinions on chocolate or vanilla in oatmeal? I use chocolate for shakes but I might consider buying a vanilla pack for oatmeal. How does it taste?

I hate plain oatmeal with a passion. I only hate flavored oatmeal. I'm so bad that I have to buy maple/brown sugar or apple/cinnamon oatmeal to eat. Not nearly as healthy but much easier to swallow...

Chocolate whey in oatmeal is the best thing ever :D Put some brown sugar in there and it's my favorite breakfast.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

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.

Lol I love flavored oatmeal, but I only kinda like plain oatmeal. It just doesn't have the same flavor. Chocolate whey in oatmeal is Okay... but it could be better.

I love oats and whey in a shake together blended up.

If anyone is looking for a healthy weight gainer do this



1cup oats
2 scoops whey
2 cups of milk

and have that shake 3 times a day


I would also reccomend you get a membership at sam's club or costco if you can and buy oats in bulk, you can get a huge 9lb bag of oats for about 7-8bucks.
