"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 theory about porn

What do you guys think about this theory?

I have decided that I think porn in moderation is good. To much porn distracts you from real women. I quit porn cold turkey for about 2 months. I believe that no porn at all made my AFC tendencies worse. I didn't have an outlet for my "sexual energy." So, I focused it on girls that I missed chances with or girls that I never could get up the nerve to ask out. I now look up porn a couple of times a week (I consider this "in moderation"). I think its a good balance of getting rid of my sexual energy (so I'm not constantly getting mad at myself for being such an AFC) without being excessive about porn.

any thoughts/comments about my theory?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

If you see girls in porn that look really good then I think you start to get conditioned to being aroused by girls of that quality. Then when you see the real life girls they don't seem as great anymore. Something along those lines.

I "sort myself out" every night and also some mornings.....unless im with lady company. WHat i do is sometimes use porn.....sometimes dont.

This way I can use my own imagination and keep up my own creative vision and thoughts and also apply some mental control. I then also use porn as a visual aspect like any male.

I think its important to vary between the 2.

I love porn but I agree it IS bad for you. For the reasons above but also: It not only realeases you sexual frustration therefore making you less likely to be arsed going after women but it also makes you see them as objects. To get real girls you need to be funny witty (you know) but I think porn conditions us not to think this way, we expect them to bang us there and then pretty much. When they don't, when we realise they aren't objects but people, we get scared and nervous. We become an AFC.

Most of the real players I know DON'T watch porn.
 

"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.

That's because most of them don't need it. Let them go days, weeks, months without sex and I'm sure they'll be singing a different tune. Haha.
