"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.

right, I'm starting to improve myself, already joined a rugby team which has boosted my social circle and my confidence. But there's one thing I been pondering on for a while now.

I want to stop talking so much and be a cooler person as part of my self improvement programme. Could someone give me advice tips or their opinions on this?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

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'm going to make a guess. Alpha male cool. Cool like coach, or cop.


Once you learn to observe the hidden language, you will understand it, and adjust things you say - both verbally and otherwise - to be dominant. Get rid of all the stuff that makes you beta male.


Have a look at this.

But why do people want to be around him, why do they feel that he's safe? You're going to remain confused until you can understand the "why's."
 

"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.

because he/they are are cool, and play sports, and when they are with him, they look good too.

Is it as simple as just playing sports and looking good? Is that all that you'll need to do?

It's just the aura they have...

I've tried to unlock the "why" too...unsuccessfully, as of now.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

I've read them before, they have nothing to do with popularity and attracting alot of people, men and women, to you and make people want to be around you more.

I am confident in myself, but doesn't make people want to be around me.

Are you saying that people DONT want to be around you? Or are you saying you want MORE people to hang around you?

What is your personality like? Do you make eye contact with everyone? What's your wardrobe like? Do you play any sports?

If you want to be cool then make some damn friends and make sure to show up to all the parties..........I think thats the kinda "cool" you're looking for.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

it is. but a few things about me, lots of people hang around me, but I'm not popular like I want to be. I want more people to hang around with me. I make eye contact with most people. I have a decent wardrobe, with sport joggers and various coloured t shirts, jeans, hoody, jumper etc. I play basketball, football and rugby, and im in a rugby team
