"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.

You had this girl, she was totally into you..and she did this funky dance, and you stood there fozen! You lost her..to some group of wimps and loosers.

We've all had it happen, we have her in out arms..and we lose her.

Like putty they are. Oh so swell how life's drama makes our poorly decided lives hell. She's fallen prey to the 20 other guys, maybe because you lost your dominance. You had it, telling that guy that she was with you. Then..you got.....uncomfortable!!

Oh my! Lightning bolts rain down on all that stands, leaving you and a empty world. You cry
Why am I so uncomfortable with her!

No one answers.

You wonder to yourself for a minute, why would no one answer my plea for help!

A piece of paper, electronically printed rolls on the ground. Seeing as you pity yourself, you run over and pick it up. You read it with passion, seeing it as a sign of hope, a sign..of things to change.

Hello,

You might think of this as failure, as a sign of weakness. Indeed, weakness prevails, failure does not. To win a girl, you must dominate over and show control. You must be able to be swift in avoiding the pitfalls of a girl, and evolving into the one you wish to become.

Presumed failure is experience. Experience becomes Improvement. Improvement becomes success.

Sincerely,
A Friend


You ask yourself,
Who is this?
You proceed to examine this paper for clues. You turn it over and it has a scripture on the back. You try to translate it, but all you can make out is..

The Key to Confidence and Comfort is....

You examine the sheet again but the remaining words are stained by water. You place this paper into your pocket and start walking. You don't know where, but a journey awaits. You continue to walk along this barren land, noticing broken alcohol bottles, a burnt out media van, a stack of crumbled up paper balls and a crying girl.

You walk up to her and notice that she is fairly beautiful and ask her what is wrong.

She replies: I need a man
You: I am a man.
Her: No you are not
You: Why do you say that?
Her: A man is un-afraid of the simplist things, I can see fear inside of you for me.
You: What..? You can look around and see that there is nothing except you and this girl.
Her: Why are you so afraid?
You: I dont' know, you are all I see here. Thinking about it, you cannot be feared, for if I am still here with nothing around, then you cannot make it any worse.

*with those words, the world starts to shake and rumble. Massive fractures from the Earth open up on the ground and spew out lava and rock. You are now completely surrounded by your impending firey death. A rock hits you in the head and you fall down, blackness overcomes you.*

You wake up in your bed and shake yourself crazy. You glance at the alarm clock flashing 5:36 AM. You reach for your pants looking for your cell phone. You put your hand in the pocket but, something else crumbles under the weight of your hand. You pull out a piece of paper. It appears to be slightly weathered and all it says is Yourself.

You check your jacket for the other piece of paper and find it. You say to yourself:

Presumed failure is experience. Experience becomes Improvement. Improvement becomes success.

The Key to Confidence and Comfort is....Yourself.


With that, you grab your pants, pull them on. You grab your jacket and head to the nearest coffee shop to begin the rest of your life.
 

"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.

Someone PMed me to discuss how his article didn't get replies. I told him that his two part thread was incredibly long, and I brought up my posts (from 8 pages back :|) so he might understand for the future.

That and I need replies too :p
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
