"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 recall seeing a topic or an article about reliable ebay retailers for cologne, but in any event, i can't find it.

I am interested in purchasing some colognes off ebay as prices are much lower. My only problem is that i don't know which sellers are trustworthy. Even some with 100% satisfaction might sell diluted cologne to buyers who are none the wiser.

Thanks.
 

"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 don't have any sellers to point to, but every time I have bought cologne (mostly Acqua di Gio) it's turned out well - the scents were authentic, and the bottles were full.
The only thing to watch out for are badly photographed or written auctions that aren't clear about whether the items are mini bottles or full-size. They occasionally make decimal place errors that are a tad misleading.

Even if you get screwed I think ebay will refund your money and go after the seller. I've been using ebay forever and I think only once had a bad incident and ebay gave me a refund immediately.
