"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.

This is something to try if you have a camera on your cell phone that has worked extremely well for me.

Everytime I feel very confident and am having the absolute best time I snap a picture of either the scenery or have a friend snap one. I usually snap the scenary if I am embarrased hahaha.

Sometimes I like to even pop in an upbeat jazz cd and view them in the morning before my day.

I go into my phone alot and pop up some pic's from good moments and for some reason my mind starts to flow a little more positive.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I like this tip and even though I have no camera in my cell phone, I can see how it would work to lift your mood, the same way as holiday snaps. It's also like an NLP anchor in many ways too as it anchors those times when you felt good.

Haha, I use my camera phone to take pics of the girls I get numbers from, so when I am sober the next day I can review their pic and remember what they look like. You never know with the beer goggles on:)
