"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.

A flying maroon coloured sausage-cigar shaped object went across my room and into a void

I was lying down and saw this velvety textured, maroon coloured cigar shaped object (ie minature indoor UFO) fly across my bedroom, about a few feet above me and into a void before my window.

My reaciton was it was not entertaining enough and immediately continued scrolling on youtube.

This happened about a number of months ago (can't remember), yet the recollection is vivid, especially how TEXTURED it appeared, and how it followed a straigt line path with an oddly consistant speed. The correct action would have been to freak out, attempt to touch object, but I felt like there was a peaceful fog all over me and I could only look at that thing but not really move. In fact, by the time there was a reaction that I may have made a movement, the whole thing already dissappeared into a void. (ie no void or portal could be visibly seen by the window, you just saw the object disappear by moving into it rather than it fading into space, etc...).

The reaction to this was that this was not entertaining enough. It's just an object moving in one direction across the room. That has no entertainment value other than appearing out of place with reality. Am I missing something? It has no relevancy, no reason for doing that, it does not compute.

Nothing of the sort has been since since that time.

But I feel there is always good content on youtube or other places to watch rather than worrying about a non-event. Maybe some probe got lost and went to the wrong house. Stupid.
 

"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.

You are missing the reaction. It may have been programmed to be sedating, but most people would still have a delayed reaction. If something supernatural happens and you are completely nonchalant about it, might be something to reflect on OP.

I don't want to give it the satisfaction of making it think it got me scared, better to mock it as not entertaining enough.

Maybe it wasn't hostile though. Maybe it was like the black monolith in Space Odyssey. Some kind of positive impetus.

Something going through your bedroom, and invading your personal space, is not hostile?
 

"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.

Is it going to slide in to your dm's on Instagram? How else is it going to get your attention?

Maybe it should hide in the bushes on the corner and hope that one day you see it.

Cigar shaped UFO's are a common sighting, when they are in the air. While on examination online, there are instances where people see these "micro UFOs" within indoor spaces, it's less mainstreamed compared to more ariel phenomina and disclosure.

If you encountered a UFO, would you feel more comfortable seeing one in the sky and hovering around or minature version of one inside of your home? People are scared when it comes to ariel UFOs enough, but you don't hear the same level of fright with indoor minature versions, like they don't register the same way. You would have aliens the size of ants?

@corrector "I was lying down and saw this velvety textured, maroon coloured cigar shaped object (ie minature indoor UFO) fly across my bedroom, about a few feet above me and into a void before my window"

That object is life itself, speaking to you in metaphor: "I've been slipping away from you for awhile, hoss... Catch up with me, before your fuel tank hits empty"

I implore you to listen up
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
