2nded. Because there is a seemingly low probability they wont even try. Thats the correlation I was trying to show with cold approaches and marriage...stand said:
"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.
Don't get married

"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.

I want to get married because I want to be the father figure of a functional family unit. The failure rate of marriages has largely to do with people who make really bad marital decisions. Sometimes, they just fail because of things beyond either spouses' control. It's a chance I'm willing to take.
Getting married just so you can have sex is the dumbest thing I've ever heard though. If you're christian, I'd suggest you commit a serious sin and have sex with someone RATHER THAN marry just for a sexual encounter, cause in the end, the latter would bring even more anguish.

F**k having kids. Just want to be rich and famous and then get a girlfriend. My game sucks ass right now, but once I get successful it's going into high gear.armadon said:

Even the ones that do "work" will get to be routine and boring. I agree with the philosopht that no-one except yourself can make you happy except yourself.
Don't get married.

Note the author's disclaimer. The gent makes a few interesting points. At a minimum, I found it to be an interesting read.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
