"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.

Look my baby moms is 19 years old which is fairly young. She used to be real clingy until i urged her to chill with her friends and stuff because it isnt healthy to be under me all the time. Now she is going out more and hanging with her friends and its great but now I feel like I should just step off for a while and enjoy this while it lasts. I dont want her to get to comfortable with her friends and start doin the wrong thing. But will she get clingy again if I give her this space?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

She's chilling with friends...and you're "stepping off".



Who's watching the baby?:confused:
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

You mean she will get clingy again if you 'don't give her this space. This isn't that latina you were dating which you referred to in your last post, is she?

Why can't she still hang out with her friends but not 'party' - is it the going out to party that is bothering you?

ok a lil update. I recently graduated college so I have been focused on gettin a job and taking care of our daughter. My baby moms being only 19 wants to do all the things like go out eat and stuff. So recently she tells me that she has been going out with some dude who spends money on her and treats her to food and stuff. lol She says she not gonna have sex with him because she wants to continue having sex with me she just likes the fact that he does all them other things. Now me personally view this dude as a lifesaver because I love her as my daughters mother but i really dont have time for all that bf gf sh!t. So im thinking I should just cut her off sexually and just take care of my kid. What yall think?

What do I think?

I think your child is going to need therapy. There is no substitue for having parents that love and are commited to each other.

You did ask what we thought.

"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.

I think Eileen brought up a very good point and we shouldn't discount how important a two parent family is to the development of child. The first five years are instrumental to what kind of adult your child will become. Pushing your girlfriend into other guys just so you don't have to deal with the boyfriend/girlfriend issues is doing a diservice to your child's development. Your child needs to see and be part of a loving relationship.
