"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.
Do you have a lighter?

"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.

If you don't, "negative, but I wouldn't mind small talk with a cutie"
Don't always be looking for the perfect line, just smile and be a normal human being.

pua: your place or mine?
p.s. you have to make EC and modulate your voice.
Best place to pull on a night out is the fag shelter, even if you don't smoke (like me). Just take a lighter and stand outside with your mates to get fresh air. A bird is bound to ask for a lighter and there you are, a chance to start conversation.
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

"sorry. i usually dont date smokers"
"nice pickup line. but please dont tell me now that you love my blue eyes, that would be too cheesy"
or while lighting her cig simply ask her a question. about the place, about what she is doing, make an observation (about her) , anythin like that
