"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.

Even though they've should outgrown this stage by now? The one, former Ms. Ohio that I saw on old recently I think I'll message her on Facebook and joke about it. Any pua I could use on her?
NO!!! It never ends. These are STARS in their realm. They will have entitlement. They will be prone to a group think. They will tie you to a type and bias for or against you depending.
 

"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.

So we are talking like newbies in this subject. ( I'm sure that guru and glassguy can nail it ). But when I had these opportunities, and I was I had the 4-C's during that time ( Car, Clothes, Crib, Convo ). I had nice stuff, a nice career and I was on the scene. It was no big deal to have these things. But I could've done better knowing what I know now. I'm not in that realm, today, still working back in after a blow out divorce, but I assume that those types will not consider you without at least the 4-C's and some popularity in some social scene.

I started as an Auxiliary Police officer when I was 30 which is my State is volunteer. Turned it into a career and now I am the real deal. The ironic thing is I was never one of those guys growing up who wanted to be a cop. I didn't become a paid sworn officer until I was 33. I absolutely love it.

“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”

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.
