"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.

Guys, I swear, the only good day I have at work is Monday. Because I'm recharged after weekend. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday I ****ing hate my work. There is this b*tch here sitting across the desk. She's mental, emotional, idiot, and a racist. She always has bad attitude, and it's like a sea, sometimes it's bad, sometimes its good, most of the time it's bad. B*tch talks over the phone, it's always yelling. I was helping with computer our neighbors on a floor down and couple offices to a side, everybody knows this b*tch, cuz they can hear this mental nutcase. She's twisted.

Though, I don't know why, most of the time this hate is not directed at me, but I still get my day ruined when I see this b*tch, hear this b*tch, or even think about this disgusting piece of sh*t. She's by bosses wife, and does finances. He told her to go home once, that I know of, because of crappy attitude. I think she hates her work.

What to do?

If shes married to the company/job, your best recourse is find a new job if you can't deal with her.

Or

Could try talking to your boss asking for a different location to work, or suggest she gets her own office or something.

This same day I wrote this the ho was totally b*tch, I said nothing, and went to bar drinking, almost in tears. I totally wanted to end it all the same day, and leave. Anyway, I got drunk, decided I'd stay, though the next day I said f*ck it and didn't show up to work. I guess that send a message, cuz today the ho is acting all nice. I try to avoid contact with her, unless its work related. But still there is this poisonous atmosphere around. I think my days are numbered here. Not a bad thing at all, I could use a change. I'm just gonna wait and see what happens, at least until the beginning of next month, I'll get my money, and if it still sh*tty I leave. But then of course there could be that they'll fire me, although there is no reason, except that I dislike this moron.

You are right about two choices, either moving on or asking for a new location.

We'll see what heavens bring. I'm content either way.

Well, apart from the fact you randomly don't turn up for work, are unable to deal with stressful situation in the workplace and don't appear to be assertive enough to resolve this situation.

You have legal rights at work. Talk to your boss and explain your not happy with the situation. If you can't explain why you're not happy...then maybe the problem is you. If you can then supply evidence. Document what was said when. Talk to HR. Talk to your counter-signing officer.

If you're going to go out drinking and crying then I would suggest you get this resolved like a man, or admit you have slightly deeper issues than your arch-enemy.

I agree, I have a bigger issue. I can't take office work, I'm a free spirit, and would much rather prefer a job that suits it. After I'm done here I'm gonna start working for myself, it's the only way to get rich anyways.
 

"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.

Why are you letting this woman get you down like this? That is absolutely futile, especially when her behaviour is not directed towards you the majority of the time, as you stated. Just ignore her, do you, let her do her, and if she offends you directly, deal with her assertively. And why are you going out drinking and crying over it? That is only compounding the problem. Dude, you are seriously reading into this way too much, there are much better ways to occupy your time than this.

There are times when I feel sorry for people who post. This is one of those times...

If a woman you are not even boning has the ability to make you get wasted and cry, then I'm afraid you have more issues than she does. I don't mean to kick you while you are down but seriously this is the wimpiest **** I've heard in a long time.

Who the hell raised you, a woman with a permanent case of PMS?

Why would you let her ruin your day?? She doesn't dictate your emotions, you do!

Be a man and stop tolerating unnecessary behavior. Real mean stand up to their problems and face them head on. Tell her sternly how you feel about her behavior. You aren't making fun of her. Your not telling her how gross she is. Your telling her how her behavior is unprofessional and how her attitude is affecting your work.

Man up and stand your ground. Your a man.
 

"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.

So a little update...

I'm really considering punching this woman in the nose. I'm serious about this, no I wouldn't get arrested, I'm in a country where everything can be bought. Nor I think I would get fired. I'll just punch her in the nose right in front of her husband and tell her to watch it.

I'm able to see and understand why people do things, I'm educated in DJing, just don't have practice, in other words I'm able to observe and understand, but don't do much about it. So this chick just hates me because I'm an AFC. Plenty of men, clients, visit us during the day, and she's cool with them, if they suck up, and not cool if they act AFC, or are of certain race. Lately she's been on my balls because somehow, someway, I was able to turn it all around against her. She was even sent home once. She wants to get me fired, and everything she has tried thus far, failed, miserably, just blew up in her face. Even that day that I just said fvck it, I'll stay home, she was made to be nice, and it worked for almost two weeks. She snapped again this Friday. I handled it by making a joke.

That time of month is coming up again when they give you money. I broke, accidentally, a glass door on a cabinet. This b*tch wants me to pay, I'm just gonna make boss let it go, since I drove my car for him and never asked for gas money. Also, I think it's only fair that he pays me extra money on top of my monthly check because I have to tolerate his wife. I'm just gonna tell him, I don't want you to consider this a pay raise, just understand I have to take this b*tch wife of yours, and I'm not enjoying it for one second. Either pay me this much more, or I'm going to start looking for a new job, no more, no less. There is a good chance IMO that money will come from her pay check. Hell yea, I'm gonna do it, I don't give a flying duck. :yes:


Sure I can leave, I was a little scared at first, but then I remembered, change is good. But let's face it, I rather see that b*tch unhappy. She's already miserable, to act normal throughout the day, and to not snap on people, she has to fake. That's miserable. I get experience points from this, I realized this is a great opportunity to learn a few things.


So comments, advice.
