"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.

BTW: Another perfect example of how texting KILLS relationships.

This is why I do things via phone call. If he had gotten that text and just called her, he would have known it was her, not his friend, and this convo wouldn't have happened in the first place.

Anyway... you didn't want to go out with her anyway, so why stress it? The fact that you asked for the date despite lacking interest is giving her a mixed signal - and, as much as all the guys on these boards complain about women doing the same thing, YOU can't be giving them false hope either. So, either you need to admit to yourself that you like her and DO want to take her out, or you need to find someone you actually WANT to take out and stop wasting this girl's time.
