"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 got into this highly selective summer research program at my school. They only take 15 people in the whole nation. Today, I found out that my one-itis got accepted as well. It's going to be very awkward for me, and it will definatly distract me from my goals.

Earlier, I was obsessed with this girl. The way she treated me made me feel like very bad, so I just stopped talking to her, and destroyed our "friendship". When I look at her, I feel like throwing up out of sadness, that's how bad I had/have it. She treats me very badly, and now that we are going to be in the same program, I know that I'm going to cave in to her games. The only way I can deal with her is by avoiding her. Now I can't even do that. What do I do?
 

"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.

If this is indeed a highly selective research program, how about worrying about your career ambitions and forget even talking to this girl.

Also, there might be other people you can get to know.

The problem is that we all have to work together. I just want to stay away from her! She emasculates me every time we talk!

15 people in the whole nation and she got picked as well? What are the odds, eh?
 

"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.

Since you got into the research program, don't drop out of it because of some chick acting like a b*tch, even if she is your oneitis. The program is too good to bail on, both for the resume and the actual experience.

Consider the added drama of this girl as just another learning experience.

I'd say that you should be civil, but indifferent to her. Treat her as a coworker, nothing more. If she treats you rudely or tries to emasculate you, call her on it. If she does it in front of other people in the program, neg her to turn the tide in your favor.

Also: make sure you make some friends in the program IMMEDIATELY! They will be allies to support you when she tries to knock you down, and provide the social proof that you aren't who she says you are.

Also, what kind of 'friend' treats you like shyt?

Why don't you be an AFC (I mean, pretend to be one if you are not) and tell her you love her? According to dj theory, this will turn her off so bad SHE will avoid YOU. Problem solved.

Grow some ballz and stop letting yourself feel infatuation for girls who don't treat you right.
 

"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.
