"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.

Long story short, the girl I had a oneitis for has started dating my best friend.

I don't care who you are, if you are a teenager you go through depression once in a while. Luckily it is very rare for me and the depression from this specific event is already gone.

I am just curious as to how you guys deal with it. Personally I just start doing something becasue I usually only get depressed when I am bores. So I will usuaully jus get together with a friend or go to the gym.

What are your tricks?
 

"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.

Stop thinking for myself?

I go off and I confront people...

Get their minds to work for me... ANYTHING they say, is better than thinking it for myself.

"talk... about anything. I don't care if it is interesting or not. I don't want to be alone with my thoughts"

I listen to music, go to the bar with good friends, go to the clubs, talk to girls, play guitar, I remind myself that no matter how bad I think I have it, I KNOW there are people who are more upset than me, and that always helps.

I watch fight club. :)

And get in the mindset that there are things out there that are far more thrilling and better than girls.
 

"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.
