"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.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

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.
 

"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.

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.

Gotta have a weight range. Some people are taller and some people's frames just take weight better.

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.

I was once 135, but I have been hitting the gym for almost 10 years now. I go four times a week.

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.

"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.

6'3" 223, 15% bf or so.

Since I want to be one of the big dogs and get up to 260+ I'd consider myself underweight lol.
