"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 agree with bigjohnson. It seems the coffeeshop market is pretty evenly split between guys and ladies.

I like coffee to keep me alert, so I usually get it on the days when I have classes. Most of those overpriced energy drinks taste terrible (red bull and socko in particular).
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Dude, this is a good observation but it would be more effective if you put a Mr. RollyEyes at the end - like this..."She is mature and sophisticated because she's got a latte in her hands.:rolleyes:

Do you see and feel the difference?
Its fixed thanks, I know I was missing something, otherwise it would sound like a statment of reason.

Good post. I was just talking about this phenomena the other day, every morning and lunch all these chicks wandering around with coffee cups???.

You get the occasional douche with his very own cup thrown into the mix now and then but nowhere near the vast growing numbers of coffee cupped chicks.

Was there an episode of grey's anatomy or whatever sh!t theyre watching now I missed to explain this bizarreness, wtf is going on????



:kick:


Any other science of sociology enthusiasts?


Btw I have noticed if its any help, the hotter the chick the more chances of seeing her prancing around with a coffee cup at lunch.
I know exackly what you mean, if its morning time and if shes hot.. there is a good chance she'll have a coffee cup in her hand. Woman just like to strut around with this stuff. To be honest, when I do drink coffee and holding the cup, I do feel more confidence.

Baffles me most people don't see this. Regarding the "if its on the internet then it must be true" thats only apply to an oppinion of 1 or so person but if its a poll of hundred the odds will balance out. Alot of researches are done by online poll.

I don`t get why Americans drink so much coffee, tea is so much better for you and depending on the brand has more caffine. It also doesn`t give you the coffee breath, which is a MAJOR TURNOFF for me. Green tea burns fat, coffee makes you fat.

I kinda agree that women are drinking coffee cuz of feminism. They start out in highschool thinkig it`s cool to have coffee in the morning, pretty soon they get addicted and end up going to starbucks everyday for the rest of their lives... If you want to WAKE UP then take a shower or buy an energy drink. Monster tastes 1000 times better than all the nasty coffee they sell at starbucks.

Women like to consume things. Actually it doesn't matter much what it is. The world could solve most of its ecological problems just by getting women to stop consuming. They are an environmental scourge.

Because they don't have enough testosterone to keep them alert, feminists have taken to using stimulants like caffeine to try and emulate the abilities of men. But it has not worked, and instead they sit around scoffing pastries whilst swapping trivial gossip.

They are too lazy to make a cup of coffee and they have the money to blow on Starbucks coffee. Maybe guys are stingy, afterall who would pay $2-$3+ for the name? Tim Hortons makes better coffee for a buck. Hell I can make better coffee at home. And what the hell has coffee drinking to do with feminism :S? You guys are taking it too far.

And the coffee they sell in cups here is sooooo.....well disgusting.
 

"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.

Red Bull tastes like cough medicine.

I only use caffeine strategically, anyway ... and it's green tea for me. Smoother "boost," fresher taste (not to mention breath), and healthy, too.

Starbucks and their ilk (Coffee People etc) offer a fast predictable and not too bad product. The places are full of folk getting after lunch coffees every weekday and most of the customers are men, but most of the benchwarmers are women. But I strongly suspect that would vary with a change in site - this area is tech rich and a lot of engineers are getting coffee. Women are not engineers.

As for too lazy, it's just not worth the time - they're probably due back to a meeting or have pressing work, so the $3 for the drink is worth less than the time they save, a simple value exchange sort of proposition.

I agree with a few posters, if by coffee you mean $3-$5 lattes loaded with sugar, yeah girls drink it alot. They love sugar, chocolate etc.

I think the need the stuff to stop their cranky PMS behaviorisms.

Fortunately my gf doesn't need it. She is pretty damn calm and level headed which is another great reason to keep her!

I counted heads yesterday at the coffee house. Of the customers 17 were men, 6 were women. All 6 women were parked outside on the patio socializing, and only 1 guy was sitting ouside with 1 more sitting inside reading. This is pretty typical.

3 children were there with 2 of the women. I assume they were the moms but who knows.

tea is so much better for you
when my iron was low my doctor said do not drink tea, it is the worst thing when it comes to iron.
when i had a kidney stone, they had to test the particles to see what they were made of and my doctor came back and told me that they were caused by tea and that is why southerns get so many kidney stones, from drinking too much sweet tea.
 

"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.

You see the sh't they sell in the US ain't tea... lipton and all those other stuff are loaded with high fructose corn syrup and sugar. When I mean tea.... I mean Japanese green tea (Gyokuro, Sencha, Matcha, Houjicha) and Chinese (Oolong and Jasmin) Also southerns drink a lot more alcohol like Moonshine... so the doc doesn't know wtf he's talkin about, what he should have said was don't drink tea a hour before taking vitamins/iron.

im sure you are right about the kind of tea, and i knew you would tell me hehe
but my dr had to send my kidney stone particles to the lab to be tested to tell me what to avoid. apparently there are kinds you can get from calcium and others from tea. he said mine were caused from tea.
then he told me to drink lemonade because it helps your body to not produce them.

Doent green tea help protect you teeth from cavities? the farm folks don't even brush their teeth, they just wash their mouth with tea before bed and most of them don't have cavities.
