"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.

hey guys, i'm new :)

so i met her on a dating website. firstly, she did suggest drink+movie and i said lets just grab a drink and talk a bit, get to know each other. but what happens if in the middle of it all she suggests to go see that movie. this is my first date with her so i know movies arent the best thing for a first date. what if we are really getting along an hour into it and she wants to see a movie, maybe i could plant some moves while we are watching seeing as we already spent an hour getting to know each other. or i should just tell her leave it for the second date?
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

Man same **** happening to me right now. She wants to see a movie. Im like, the **** am I really that boring? I do love cinema, but it seems kind of lame to suggest going to a movie. Thats old married people ****, you know? I will go to the cinema with my friends, but on a date? Like come on. Boring. I say we both ditch that crap.

Movies = makeout, maybe other stuff as well. You guys are just too passive. I don't go to the movies with a chick to watch a movie, I go to get down with her. If there's something I really want to see, I'm not going with a girl.

So make sure to watch something ****ty so it won't distract you/her and the room won't be too packed.

this is a first date though... you think that's still okay within an hour of the date? i mean, she DID suggest it. but i don't know.. everyone says its the worst idea on a first date.

*After an hour of drinks and flirtation and escalation*

Her: Let's go see a movie!

You: Hmm...what's playing?

Her: Twilight, Sisterhood of Traveling Pants, etc

You: Not really feeling those...hey there's a Redbox over there, let's pick something out, I have surround-sound at my place ;)
 

"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.

Take control. Tell her you want to do something other than see a movie. You can't get to know her during a movie.

If you do however wind up going a movie, take the bottom out of your popcorn cup and give her a surprise.

well an hour is plenty of time to get comfortable with each other. i figured going to see a movie after a long chit chat i could put the moves on her while the flirting and spark feelings are still in her. the shopping center will be closing in an hour and a half after meeting. either i could go see a movie after an hour or just call it a night and kiss her in the car? i never invite girls to my house the first date. even i dont feel comfortable with that. UNLESS we hit it off really REALLY good.

the date is tomorrow!
