"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.

I have come to realize in my ponderings that the emotional tampon isn't really something you want to be. Of course. But what I have also come to realize is that the reason it is frowned upon to listen to a girl talk about here relationships is because it appears that you are playing the part of the emotioal tampon. But in truth if you have the qualities and the mindset of a DJ it is impossible to be an emotional tampon.
Emotional tampons are the guys that listen to a girl about her problems and then she doesn't even listen. But a DJ is someone who the girl respects and seeks the approval of and listens to. So she will actually listen to your advice so it's ok to listen to her plus the advice might actually work and then she will be a good friend and also she will try to repay the favor by hooking you up with one of her friends. Well I don't know about the last part but maybe.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Heh. So true. There are girls that spill there whole 'bad day' on you, you respect that she is hurt, you give advice, but shoooonk. Its like your talking to a wall. She doesn't listen to your advice one bit.

And some of the stuff that they tell you is so pointless and sad that it makes your life look like sh!t, when your actually overly happy with it. So bottom line only listen to girls that have real problems and who actually listen to your expert advice. The others are self-centred drama queens who I couldn't give a f**k about.

Being an emotional tampon sucks... but sometimes girls like it when you listen to their crappy problems....they won't think of you as a guy who just wants *****...
