"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.

Alright heres the deal, Last week I went on a trip 2 hours away from were I live for a week. So me and tihs girls start talking and were like hanging out all the time. she was always just there for me even when I got sick. So of course after al lthat goes well ends well. I have to go home and she lives 2 hours away and I can't stop thinking about her. Me and my freid were thinking about driving up there every so often becasue he is getting his lsicense withinh the next month but I only get mine in a year. and I seriosuly wanna get to know her better at least become really good friends with her... I want someone like her in my life perferably a gf but as a good friend I would not mind either.
 

"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.

Get her e-mail, phone or SN. These seem to be the only solution if you're inclined to get to know her better. Otherwise, she's one person - 2 hours away. That makes for a 4 hour trip. She isn't your girlfriend so I would definetly not concern myself with her. To do so, and to drive up there after knowing her for only a week, would be unhealthy in my opinion.

Also, does she feel the same way about you?

She is not yout girlfriend right now so she is not worth the trouble.

I already got those, but I am pretty sure she has got the same feelings because she was following me aroudn the whole time giving me back massages and back rubs and hugs and right before I left she held my arm well I was in the van and she was out and Kept asking me for gus before I left to. and she isn't one of the sluty girls shes one of those more quite hot nice girls.

Are you trying to somehow justify caring for her? You had an opportunity during that week and from my understanding you did not capitalize on it. That opportunity is not longer available right now. If she was nearly as interested as you, then I feel something would have happened.

Again, even if things are as you say they are- you're interested and so is she. Backrubs and what not. You're not gonna drive 4 fvcking hours for a back rub!

And by the sound of your final moments, a big opportunity may have been missed. If that is the case, then she has moved on.

Use her contact info sparringly if you do pursue. Best of luck.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
