You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
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 would say." Honey, Im glad you rasied this issue. However I think that we still have enough for a good friendship without sex. Would you be OK if i had other sexual partners?"SamMalone said:Is this acceptable? She's still doing me, so I guess it shouldn't be a big deal, but I don't know if these are just jokes or what. And no I am not secure in that area.
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
It depends man. In what context is she saying this? If she is doing this to tease you, she might just be actually teasing you. In that case, just tease her back. If you feel that she's saying it to be spiteful or because she actually believes that, you need to have the boundary talk. In any case, it should be her you should be telling this too not us. Be honest to her about how you think it's not cool that she does that.SamMalone said:Is this acceptable?

I'm sorry. Obviously you've never had good sexTrader said:In the end - it's always about her.
Even during the pleasurable act of sex - the man must *serve* the girl, and the girl always expects to be *served.*
Sex is so overrated.
There are lots of reasons women do this and it's quite common since it's usually an extremely weak spot in men. She can have multiple reasons wrapped all in one. It doesn't really matter.SamMalone said:Is this acceptable? She's still doing me, so I guess it shouldn't be a big deal, but I don't know if these are just jokes or what.

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.
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
