"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 did a search and found 2 "more smilies" threads where no responce was given.... So I thought I'd bring it up again....

Can we maybe get more smilies for the forum? At the moment there are 11 smilies that we can choose from, which is a decent ammount, but do you think we could get some more? :rolleyes: Just an idea;)

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

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.

I actually PMed allen a while ago about this and he said that he'd think about it cause he does agree that more smilies would be good. :)

So we'll see.

smileys

I like this idea. More smileys would be cooler then any avatars or anything else that is usually suggested.
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

You guys want smilies because the forum gets boring eh.

How about soem fresh air. Every person you see outside has a different face. It's better than smileys. You should try it sometime.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

When you get to the stage where u party and go out just HALF the amount that i do, then I'll think about listening to your advice;) Till then, take your own advice:rolleyes:

And getting more smilies has nothing to do with getting out or not, its just making things "nicer" by giving us more options to express what we say.

Vincent: y0 dude... Has Allen gotten back to you yet?:)
