"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.

One of the frustrating things is you got 'lucky' and had sex and then you completely forgot her even if she was much hotter than the girls you chased.

I guess you fell for the hedonic adaptation. If you get things to easy you can't process it and enjoy it. That is why a certain level of anticipation is important. Your brain has to really want it over a period of time otherwise it is as interesting as going to the toilet though that can be awesome too I guess but you get my point.

Imagination and visualization write the true sex story into the brain. That is why sex can be an artform. That is why it is said that sex happens in the brain.
 

"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.

Yep, in my experience the best sexual encounters involved buildup, not just immediate gratification. The buildup can happen over a night or a month. Women understand this well which is why they're such good seductresses. Sometimes I think women look better in sexy outfits than naked, believe it or not. Clothes off, they all kinda look the same and the mystery is over.
Men's psychology is like making fire versus femals' which is like slowly boiling water. The first feels like consuming fast food. You don't really feel good about it on the long run or even the same day.

Got lucky? There is nothing lucky about it. And trust me. If a woman gets to experience sex with me she is the one who is lucky.

Back in the 60-70’s when that lucky term first originated, it was She got lucky last night, then it was I got lucky, then it evolved to we got lucky. A PC way of announcing or bragging to acquaintances you had sex lately, but I never thought good seduction techniques were due to Luck or sex was a good casual mixed company conversation topic ……
 

"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.

I know many guys will agree with Lemmie.
However, I find getting inside her is sheer ecstasy. I don’t like the chase, or the build up. I’d rather minimize foreplay as well.

That could be the reason why there are so many fat guys because they find fast food awesome but some of them have to suffer for that experience.

Though people are different....

But it sucks if you have a hot girl and after some sex she becomes kind of boring because we are programmed to chase new hotter meat. If you can't cultivate the anticipation everything becomes more boring or lower ROI. Then I guess the complaining starts.








People who chase sex like rabbits might run in some other problems.

Right, what started out as a male dominant term, i.e., She got lucky, has now been adopted over time by women to say, He got lucky…
What a man definitely needs in today’s environment is to be up to date on current seduction techniques… aka Game
Some men may not need it, but others need to know it.
rant over, and time to get this tread back on track…
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I've always valued the thrill of the hunt. I want to be able to conquer something. Its powerful and rewarding. Winning is the greatest feeling. But it's only a temporary high.

I find baddies can be lazy. A bad lay even.

As I get older, a 6+ cute but 18-23 who just sexually charged is something else.

Like as a kid you want a toy on Christmas or to beat the game. You get there and you think, WHAT NOW?
