"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.

first, some background
i have this platonic female friend (lets call her jill) askin me out, agreeing about me wantin to meet her boy. so iwas like cool, got another wing tat i could hang with. we went to a "secret" (less known cafe) to chat. and found out tat the boy was some what of a natural dj himself. and in the mist of de chat, a girl came from me behind and sat down beside me(5at 1st but gave her 7after the chat) tat girl was a friend of jill who happens to walk by(yeah rite like she would walk into a secluded area herself).
ne way, talk about havin female friends around u, tat was way too cool.

some weeks passed, jill's boy asked me out one day for some advice.

his prob.... failin jill's test
the question jill asked:
If one day both your mom and i fell into the water who would u save 1st?

he answered: my mom
jill was like pi$sed face, i was like wat the heck, i would save me mom too!!!

you guys have ne solutions tat have more tact in handling tis question? i think answerin saving either of the two is bound to fail tis test
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Look her in the eyes.

"wait till it happens" - with a seductive smile.

she'll think you're gonna save her, but you know you're gonna save your mum.

here's my cynical self again...ahem:

her: would you save me or your mom?

me: you because i know my mom can swim and you're like a rock.

her: what?!?!

me: don't worry, i'll let go if you're too difficult.

her: :mad:

me: :D

I always keep stuff humorous so she never knows whether I'm kidding or not. MWAHAHAHAHA.

I think that would be absolutely the best way to handle the situation. But any girl who wants to freak out if you said you would save your mom first is taking this hypothetical situation way to serious.

I know this sounds AFC-ish but I've been using this answer everytime and it worked for me.

"I'll save my mom first, then I'll jump into the water and die with you"
 

"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.
