"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.

A bit of a nerd hobby, but as far as addicting massive multiplayer games go it actually isn't so bad-- takes a minimal amount of time, usually most playing is daily and if its time critical its past midnight, community based with IRC chats and forums, etc. and about 30,000 players in case you get lonely :rolleyes:

I'm Anchova in the Valhalla alliance (join an alliance, or else you won't make it two weeks). You can join up here (just register at that forum and then signup in the welcome forum.)

It's a funny hobby if you need to waste a half hour or so every night. Figured I'd let you guys know.
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

More like the culmination of "web 2.0" at work. I find the concept fascinating though I don't have the time to waste nor the patience to learn this game.

Yeah the learning curve can be a bit steep but with an hour of investment first night and a little bit of time each week it can be a pretty fun side hobby.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

This game is great. After the first few days of learning it takes just minutes a night.
Aye, it's good to have a game that you could spend four hours a day playing or ten minutes a day playing. And Valhalla is the ****, makes the game so much more fun when you've got a good group of people.
