"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.

Girl at work is driving me mad (in a good and bad way). Help?

So there's this girl I work with 2-3 times a week. She's really attractive and completely up my street in terms of looks and personality, but, because we work together, I don't want to make a move or make it obvious I like her.

I've got a good idea that she likes me back too, which is making the situation that little worse.

She constantly tries talking to me (sometimes when I'm speaking to customers), ask me questions and will go out of her way to come stand quite close to me.

It's really hard because I do like her, but I know I shouldn't do anything about it.

The good news is I'm handing my notice on Thursday morning because I'm moving to another country... but I see her another 2 times before then...
 

"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 suspect you've never had a job in your life, or haven't held one for quite some time...
I have. Got with a chick about a month and a half in over here. Everyone knew about it too, I just knew how to play it off. My boss is also pretty cool too though so there’s also that, but I just know how to handle situations. Completely broke her heart. She just played herself though, wasn’t me doing anything.

You legend.
 

"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.

I second this. Stop being afraid in life. Go after what you want if you’re confident. I can go to any company that does my kind of work anywhere in the country and get hired immediately. And have. If there’s fine pu$$y around I notice.

bang her anyway unless your job is actually important, if you're low level and making 5 figures who cares?
