"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.

Are women who live by themselves with multiple pets crazy?

Hey, lurked here for a few years. I just got back from eating lunch with this chick in her mid 20s. Anyway, it turns out this girl is single, but the thing that sort of made me concerned was I found out she lives all by herself in a small place and has 2 big ass dogs. I dunno, to me that seems unusual to live by yourself and have more than one pet. She also is crazy about them and was trying to talk about them a lot despite my best efforts to change the subject. This is also coupled by the fact this girl also seemed really lonely even though she is really hot and seems to have a sweet personality. What do you guys think? When I step back and look at her objectively it makes me very cautious.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

She just loves pets, and she's passionate about it. Have you ever shared your passions and hobbies to others, even though they really didn't care and wanted to change topics? Have you ever talked about your favorite geekout, or sports team, or tv show or band?

She most likely is a nurturing person who is able to care for something/someone other than herself. Taking care of pets can be very time consuming, as I've observed from friends and people that know. Other women are passionate about themselves, about drama in their life, about ex boyfriends, children, etc.

No red flag there. Now, if she's single, never married, over 30, and has more than 2-3 cats, then we're talking.

Thats about right.
 

"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.

I know someone who is "single, never married, over 30, and has more than 2-3 cats"...well, three dogs (and she's 43yo)! What does this usually say about a woman in general?

We have to "play Mommy" to something! It's hardwired into our gentic code. If we can't do it with kids, we'll MAKE kids out of fuzzy animals. If a woman has several animals, she has to have some money, vet bills are horrifying!

I used to work with a woman who has 12 cats! She seemed normal enough, held a high paying job & had lots of friends...she was just a bleeding heart when it came to adopting cats & taking in strays.


P.S. I only have one cat & that's because it's too hard to find a rental that takes dogs. :p
