Most of Hollywood films are showing women as the Hero
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"She's Out of Your League"
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.

This seems like an Anything Else topic...but can you cite some examples? Pretty much every movie that I watch has the male lead as the protagonist.truthistruth said:

No kidding, bro. This is an "Anything Else" thread all the way.Just a Shot Away said:
As for the OP, sounds like he's been watching too many Tomb Raider movies.
This emoticon is for you, OP:
"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.

Speaking of women as the hero, what's with Michael Cera types becoming lead characters in movies now? (I hardly consider him male)
I saw Zombieland tonight, and the main character was this sniveling vagina that I thought must be Michael Cera until I got a better look at him and realized that apparently there are more than one of these sissies running around Hollywood now. The always badass Woody Harrelson co-starred alongside him, but somehow they made sure to keep AFC boy as the hero despite the fact that he was apologizing for everything the whole movie while Woody was taking care of business.
The movie itself was good, but I have a really low tolerance for the whole AFC saves the day and gets the girl thing now. In real life, that kid would have been zombie chow in the first scene and Woody would have been balls deep in this chick that was half his age.
