"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 saw this woman, she had a cute face...all pics were selfies. We started chatting online. But then I noticed all her selfies were taken above her head.

So I went to look her up on FB, dammit, every SINGLE photo she has is a selfie...NOTHING from the waist up. She covered all basises. lol. I did though, however, saw a straight on head shot, from the chest up...and she looked a little bit chubbier than the rest of her selfies...so it has me worried.

Sounds like she made an effort even on social media to hide her weight, yes?
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Hiding weight? Lol!:p

She's only going to disappoint any prospects that are not "chubby chasers".

it's called the fat girl angle shot, invented long ago, when myspace was popular
 

"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.

I met a chick on Bumble once. I learned just what the "Myspace Angles" and portrait-only shots hide. This chick and I meet up and she's at least twice my size. Not to mention the frumpy white blouse she was wearing. Her forehead and top of her hair were drenched and her shoulders are neck area were clearly damp with sweat. It was an average, summer day. She texted me the next day saying it was a really nice date (no, it wasn't). I was polite and told her there wasn't any chemistry between us.

Yeah I've been burned twice now on selfies that were out of date. Banged both of them anyway but still, I was less than pleased when these girls showed up looking nothing like their pictures taken in college.

I call it the Fangle (the fat angle.)
