how do you guys deal with HR women who spy on you?
I have been spied upon by HR since I am a newbie to a company.

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

"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.

Dear Picard,

The blight of Western productivity.
Been scolded like a petulant teenager by these self important non productive chocolate and cake eating hens quite a few times now. If you can be bothered you can turn their time wasting, politically correct bullsh!t back on them, they hate it.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I work part-time for a company, and I just recently got the HR lady workimg for me in one of my businesses.
Now she's under my employ, and I'm quite certain she would hesitate to wring the neck of her golden goose (I have her generously compensated on commision only).
Plus, there is always the spectre of conflict of interest that now hangs over her head. Potential enemy neutralized.

HR women often walk by my desk peering at me. It is the same woman most of the time.

They do like to meddle.. as if to feel important and part of men's affairs. Ballbusters most of them.

They are overpaid and pretty much worthless. Spend all their time sending out emails for the upcoming United Way raffle and bake sale.
Talk about a high pressure job!

"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.

HR is occupy 100% of women.

Because they are hired spies/hitwomen who pretend to be employee advocates but who are in fact hired guns for the company.
One should NEVER go through HR channels to make a complaint about a boss, even thought they have that fake mechanism in place. They will pretend to "hear your side" with all the friendliness in the world (they want you to spill your guts and incriminate yourself) and then arrange a meeting down the road to "mediate" the complaint. Both HR and the boss will draw up a huge list of complaints they have about you (unbeknownst to you they have conspired together to draw up this list) and put you on warning. You're on your way out at that point.

as an adjunct...have an exit plan the moment you join a company...as a man you will have no allies...none...I run a department of 48 scientists...the moment 1 of them starts to act up in a underhanded way they are canned by me...no excuses no grace period.

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
