curious. thinkin of startin a new fad
"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.
can black people grow mullets?
- Thread starter backbreaker
- Start date
"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 think there were a couple hideous rap groups in the early 90s who tried it, their mullets fading into history...
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Wow...you guys are young.
Long before the mullet became the haircut of ridicule for the white community, in the early eighties we black people also had our own version of it.
Back then, especially here in the dirty south we used to call it "The Shag".
Check out any early Shalamar (Howard Hewett) video from the early eighties on Youtube, or better yet, check out ANY Lionel Ritchie video ALL THROUGHOUT the eighties.

Ain't nothin' new my friends, it's just variations or innovations on the same old thing---------with a different name that "the kids" might be calling it these days.
RESPECT to you my brothers.
Soldier on.

See, now backbreaker says he's growing a mullet, its alright?
But when I said about the rat tail, I got bashed for it.
The mullet is one of the worst hair fads I've ever seen.
The rat tail (the proper one) reaks havoc and is ftw. Lots of Columbian and Brazilian playboys, pimps and naturals have this. Wouldn't Black people have to straighten the back a bit (perm) or unless you want it like a afro?

I think Jheri Curls are kind of black mullets too. The preferred coiffage of bamas and rednecks respectively.
Cornrows remind me of mullets too. Mullets are only appropriate on old beer-drinking hell-raisin' OLD white men and cornrows are only appropriate on cute as a button pre-teen black girls. Or little white girls who have just returned from a trip to the Jamaica. Otherwise they have a similiar amount of fail attached to them.

To be honest, I think you would look better sporting one of these hairstyles backbreaker:

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

You're too late. Asking silly questions on internet forums is already quite popular.backbreaker said:
