^ the poll is that way ^
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
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.
Your weight
- Thread starter ChalengeGuyFan
- Start date
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Poll is largely meaningless, since it depends on definition.
A better one would have been to have weight incremements, e.g
130 - 139 pounds
140 - 149 pounds
150 - 159 pounds
etc
At 5'8" and about 185 pounds, I am according to the body mass index classified as overweight.
What this doesn't take into account is that I am up from 155 pounds purely from my weight routine.
So while I am classifieid as "overweight" (relative to all the wimps with no muscle out there), I'd regard myself as "normal" and still on the way up.
And I think there would be a lot of people out there in a similar situation as me.

Overweight? Underweight?
How about this: I'm fat. That's what 5 years of academic and career success will do.
But...by the end of the year I will not be fat. And within 3 years I will be in the best shape of my life. Doing it in 3 years will be hard to pull off as it took me 6 years the first time. But this time I can control my diet and workout much better.

@runner83: I thought about that when starting the thread, but then decided to keep it simple.
Since (e.g.) a cyclist's normal weight is different from (e.g.) a heavy-lifter's, one should vote in accordance with his workout routine & use common sense.
And by that I mean that mostly every man can judge if he needs to bulk up or lose some & vote accordingly.

"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.
errr I'm gonna say normal. But for more detail, I'm 5 ft 7, and in the last 4 months have gone from 64kg to 70kg. I'm aiming for 75kg before I start losing weight for the summer so I can hit the beach 
Did a body fat test a few months back and it said I was 20%. Today I did one (on an apparently better machine) and it said 13.9%. No doubt I'm somewhere in between, but I want to get bigger first before I start trying to cut down.

5'8" 175 lbs.
Got a little fat around the mid-section. I really have no goal other than to get my body back to the way it used to be when I worked out consistently 5 years ago...also, I just want to make going to the gym a habit for the rest of my life instead of quitting all the time.

5'8" - 193 at around 12% bf as tested a couple of days ago. I'm borderline obese as per BMI... but I can still wear most of size 32 jeans assuming there's enough ass and quad room. Maybe just maybe BMI is a load of shiite.
Weight to me doesnt' mean a whole lot by itself, unless you're combining it with body composition numbers, etc.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Sitting on 198lbs, at roughly 17% bodyfat.
I would consider myself overweight (perhaps overfat is a better word) right now.
In recent years I have been as low as 150lbs and as high as 205lbs, at varying bodyfat percentage though never over 20%.
At my peak fitness level, I was 170lbs and 10% bf.

"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.
