"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.

Is it alright to hold eye contact while smirking? Or is that a no-no?
 

"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.

Ok, what about this perspective (thinking outside the box here)

will it be ok to break eye contact from a girl to sub-communicate "Hmp, I am the catch and you are not worthy"? Or will breaking eye contact a weakness?

One thing I noticed from girls that I have no particular interest in is that if I look around while we are talking as opposed to me maintaining eye contact is that they will work harder to get my attention, they will send me tons of IOI, you know the hair thing, the touching of my arm, compliments etc.

Or wait, how bout this. Maybe you should break eye contact and then MAKE IT AGAIN! That will show her that you're mysterious in case she already knows the looking away trick...she would never expect it. So look away for .72 seconds and then look back.

Come on, man. Stop overthinking it.

BUMPing for interest

think about it fellas, as I can recall nobles NEVER look at their servants in the eye, so would that also apply to women?
 

"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.

What does that even mean? Respecting people and accepting people for what they are = eye contact?

Sounds like vague empty waffle to me.



Well that is just wrong. What on earth makes you say that? You look away from someone you distrust or are annoyed at?

You definitely stare them down and hold focus unless you are also intimidated. A salesman who you think is lying to you, you probably look even harder to detect it.

Eye contact is intimidation linked 99% of the time.


Only thing worst than vague empty waffle is false information.


You should look at it in context, e.i. cultural setting, business/private life, gender, etc.

It's %102 about intimidation when you are in jail. Between a woman and a men it is a whole other story. Does it mean that I should start intimidating women all over sudden?
