"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.

Another aspect related to this is that in my case at least, all my friends are AFC. So if I go out with them I feel like they are totally dragging me down.

I need to meet some fellow DJs (or even DJs in training which is what I consider myself.) Just someone with at least half a clue that could be a decent wing man.

Until I meet such a person though, I'd be better off alone than with AFC friends.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Philly, dude
Thanks to Mind Over Matter for posting the link to the Gunwitch site... good info in there, I bookmarked it for a more thorough reading later. While I sometimes get frustrated with this site, it's references like these which make it worthwhile.
