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.
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.
Probably. But I've tried plenty of flax meal in my shake. Seems to prevent tihs. Slower absorbtion since flax is full of fiber.simon said:The BCAAs in the whey trigger an insulin response which I guess then leads to you going hypoglycaemic for a while ---> headache.
Yeah, I'm thinking of switching to egg white powder now as well. Iron Addict recommends it over whey now (tho maybe not PWO). The only problem I can imagine is that I'd need to find something to mix up with it, so the shakes have a flavour. Or is there some egg white protein powders that come with flavourings in mate?simon said:Yeah that's one way you can prevent it. I just have a shake with a meal instead of on its own. Making a switch to egg white powder now though.
Yeah some other guys from IA's boards have moved or are moving over to egg protein too. Another problem with egg protein is the higher price. I'll be sticking to whey PWO.shaunuk said:Yeah, I'm thinking of switching to egg white powder now as well. Iron Addict recommends it over whey now (tho maybe not PWO).

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
So you're telling me that if he liked using really light weights, but wanted to pack on some serious mass, that it's okay, because after all, he likes lifting light...blinkwatt said:Dude lift however you want,as long as you like it that's all that matters.
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.
