"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.

hey guys. i have good abs but my torso looks a little too skinny to me. i know there are certain muscles on the sides of your abs that are supposed to make you look wider. can any one point me towards exercises that will improve these?

breath heavy and extend your chest ******ds when performing taxing exercises like squats and deadlifts, this will widen your ribcage.

arnold S - encyclopedia of modern Bodybuilding



also your lats, and pec/deltoid tie in will grow in time.

Yep, love-handles will definitely make you look wider.... Never heard anyone refer to them as muscles before though... :p
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

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.

Squats and deadlifts will help develop your midsection (including your lower back) This gives the 'power look' as opposed to a bodybuilder who aim to keep a relatively small waist.

Heavy barbell side bends and heavy barbell twists will seriously develop the obliques.

I dont think you really want to thicken your waist much. Heavy squats and deads will do that enough for you. Get your shoulders and lats to go wide.

Nice wide shoulders and a thin waist look great.

As far as rib-cage expansion I think that the idea of noticably expanding ones ribcage is pretty much considered unrealistic

No, you do not want to thicken your waist. You should be trying for a narrow waist and broad shoulders, a v shape.

I've got love handles on the sides, and I hate em. The only thing that partially makes up for them is that I've got very wide shoulders, which helps mitigate the wide waist.
