"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 talk badly about others?

Hey guys, do you find yourself talking badly about other people?
Or judge others often?

-If I find someone repugnant, I'll express my sentiments out loud and to their face(s), yep

-We all "judge" ourselves and others. Our contemporary fixation on being "non-judgmental" is the equivalent of trying to cook spaghetti, without boiling water... We're trying to do an end run around the sometimes disquieting work of investigating the accuracy of our thoughts and beliefs I.E. Our judgments

If you find yourself deifying someone, dehumanizing them, or labeling them a mediocrity, it's prudent to explore alternative ways of viewing this same person. Real-Life Ex.

Joseph Stalin was apparently deemed unremarkable by many of his peers, yet he became one of the most powerful men on Earth, remained so until his death, and was/is one of a minute handful who can honestly boast: "I altered and shaped the course of human history"

Perhaps he wasn't as bright, attractive, eloquent, or charismatic as his aforementioned peers who sneered dismissively at him. Dude who was anything but "a mediocrity" though

No not individually. Group wise, yes. I talk about the corrupt governments around the world that we have including the states. How they the leaders do a lot of evil and corrupt acts behind close doors. No offense, America is still a great country, I served in the Military and getting benefits from it, but there's a lot more that needs to be said and make people aware what really goes down when no one is watching.
