"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.
Any bitcoin owners here?

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
The price of bitcoin did drop about 25% because of the silk roads shut down, only to go right back up days later and make historical highs. If you ask me this last rise in price is attributed to the fact that bitcoin didnt totally collapse after the shut down.DJ Bax said:
"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.

They very well may be in a bubble, as more and more people are hearing about them, and buying them just because they think they'll go up in price (which pretty much defines a bubble).
While I would have LOVED to make 40 TIMES my money over the past year, I'm fearful that the government will decide to pull the rug out at any time.
For those in the know, does the increase in price justify all the equipment needed to mine them? I know six months or so ago, it was pretty close.
Could you spend $5K on mining machines and make a profit within, say, six months? Or is the rise in price also reflect the diminishing mining returns?

The government can't do sh1t about bitcoin, they have zero control over them.taiyuu_otoko said:
There's virtually no point in trying to mine them at this point, the amount of money you spend will be vast compared to what you get out.

Since I own a computer business, I wonder if I could cobble together a mining rig that would at least pull some kind of profit. I need to keep 3 computers running 24/7 in my office, and a lot of that time is idle time. It seems to be worth investigating.
"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.

Dollar isn't as volatile, and is more liquid than BitCoins.ArcBound said:
Again guys, stay far away. This is a bubble; the concept can be applied to an infinite amount of digital currencies. You'd be better off learning real business skills.

Good you made a profit.
One thing they say about bubbles is you feel like an idiot if you don't get it, then you feel like an idiot when you do get in.
Just remember the sage words of Malcom Forbes:
"Never buy at the bottom, and ALWAYS sell too soon."

"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.
