"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Did becoming a more attractive man make you resent some woman?

Frayzer, you better stop before he feels "unattractive" again. God save us from that.
 

"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.

Haha I wasn't even making fun of him just making a point! Maybe he's just not in his love mood anymore, it goes through cycles you know.

If a girl went from a fat blob to a bikini model would you start paying attention to her?

only resent the ones who knew the old you and wouldn't give him the time of day but are suddenly all over you.

the ones who you never knew shouldn't get flack for things they didn't even do.

it's perfectly logical to resent a woman who is only after you cuz you're handsome and successful now.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Wouldn't go with resent, but my bar is a hell of a lot higher now. I am extremely picky.

I don't know if that has to do with me being more "attractive" in a superficial sense or if it's just an experience and maturity thing. I've had lame drunk sex a million times now, I don't really need that anymore.
