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 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.
I wrote 'either' of the 4, because they are all one and the same. And the damage is subtle and insidious. With constant shifting of truths with lies which are so trivial you start to second guess yourself. It's easy to get caught in the web. Only when I got enough I reached escaped velocity and the fallout was brutal due to her abandonment issues."BPD Crazy Psycho Nightmare"?? The title alone is evidence of a minimum of 3 mistakes that were made by OP. How can a girl become 4 levels of bad? You should have walked away at level 1 bad.
But oh, the poor OP needs a hug because she was just a really bad girl and he deserved a really good girl.
