"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.

Ok so last night I went to my friends house they all introduced me to this girl that was visiting. Later on in the night we get really drunk and go to this party, at the party she pulls me on to the dance floor and says "lets dance". We end up grinding the whole night and she sits on my lap on the couch. While my friend was at the party the entire time!! He saw me dancing with her, didn't seem to get mad just pulled her away(only after a long time of him seeing us dancing) to talk to her and didn't confront me at all about it. Once I wanted to leave the party he was still super nice to me, asked me if I'm alright and said to stay safe. I didn't realize until this morning that the girl was his girlfriend that was visiting!!!? I feel so terrible, but no one told me I literally did not know at all but I feel so guilty . He didn't introduce her to me as his girlfriend or anything. He didn't say "dude that's my girl " or something so I would at least know. Im not that type of guy that messes with friends girlfriends. How come he didn't confront me or make it known before things got out of hand? It makes absolutely no sense to me. Am I in the wrong here? Any advice?
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I think youre overthinking this. If youre a decent dude, and if your friend knows that, then dancing with his chick obviously isnt a big deal to him.

Im sure itd be different if you were some stranger. I personally wouldnt mind if my good friends danced with a girl I was dating. As long as the dancing didnt cross a line.

If you didn't know, then no harm, no foul.

If you're a close friend of this guy you can always call him, exchange a little small-talk, and say "Dude, I had no idea that girl was your girlfiend. Do me a favor, let me know next time, will ya?" in a friendly, almost joking way. He really should have told you in the first place.

Don't make it an angst-laden thing, like in your post above. Just make it light, tight & matter-of-fact, like it's no big deal, just one bro being polite with another.

I don't understand how you can possibly construe this as your own fault, and why you feel so bad about it when you had no idea who this was. It's your friend's fault, not yours.

Oh, and she is a skank.
