"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.

I've met a girl who I'd like to get to know better. I have no problems with asking her out. Problem is that I'm completely broke at the moment and my room-mate has gone away meaning I need to be home a lot to look after/feed his bloody pets. All of this and my job means I'm going to be swamped for the next few weeks.

Would it be wise to ask her round my place on a first date? Somehow I don't think playing the xbox will go down well and watching a DVD seems pretty boring/lame to me.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
 

"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.

well you could tell her that you have no money and then ask her to go for a walk at a park or something

Tell her you are super busy and don't feel like going out, and then invite her over for wine.
