"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.

Guys, i'm not completely out of shape, but i'm not really where i would like to be..... I want to start working out with my dad (who is a beast) but he told me he won't take me to the gym w/ him until i prove i can do 50 consecutive pushups (he's old school...) Anyways i'm doing that plan on hundredpushups.com and i could do 13 w.o stopping but my back kind of hurts when i do one. Is this because i never really do pushups? Or is it because i have some sort back problem? Will it go away if i continue the plan? Or will it worsen? I would really enjoy your feedback
 

"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.

Are you in good shape otherwise?

Do you do cardio and any weight lifting at all??

Are you doing them with good form? You're not letting your lower back drop, are you? That's the only thing I can think off the top of my head that could cause back pain.
