"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.

How to act around girls who blew you off?

Living on college campus I meet some of the girls who stopping picking up their phones for me after a few dates, most wanted just a bang anyway.

When I walk by them, they are nice and friendly. Should I act the same way back or ignore them even when they try to smile, say Hi or have a conversation?


Also, if a girl rejects you because she is seeing someone, BUT says that she really wants to get to know you, and says "You never know what may happen later" then would you ask her again?

I talked to her a few times a year after I asked her and she always says "it was so nice talking to you" and smiles and even kinos me at times.

So, gut tells me she wants me but its just she rejected me once before... but she did it for a right reason, since I know for sure she was seeing a guy.
 

"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.

Yeah, I would go for her. If she only rejected you cos she was already with someone, that's the best rejection you can get. (I mean, when it's TRUE, anyway.)

Just a quick example: I was at a club once, and this girl I 'knew' (I'd seen her before, and she had seen me) was dancing near me. I go to her, hey I wanna talk to you, let's go over there (I nodded my head at some sofas). She shook her head no. I said it to her again, and she goes, umm, hang on, I can't right now. I think i might have said it again, but I can't remember.

Anyway, couple weeks later, she came up to me and she goes, sorry, I couldn't do anything last time, I was seeing [guy's name].

In this situation, obviously it's perfectly fine to go for her.

What about the ones who just flaked on me?

They OFTEN want me to acknowledge their presence, but nothing more.

Hmm, that's a tougher one. I can't really say man, cos I don't recall ever having to see chicks that flaked on me again. I did use to see chicks that rejected me at clubs a few times, but I just ignored them, which maybe wasn't the best thing to do.

I suppose just saying hi or somethin isn't too bad. I think the best thing would be to just show that you're not affected by their flaking on you. Like, don't look TOO bright and happy when you see them, 'cos that sort of looks like you're just happy to see them and that you're hoping they give you another chance. Then again, if you are too dark and grumpy, or if you ignore them, that's not good for YOU, cos it's teaching you a bad habit (imo). Just a simple "hey how's it goin" and keep walking is pretty much fine, I think.

Then again, if you WANT to stop and talk to them for longer, okay, that's up to you. I'm just assuming here that you DON'T want to talk to them again and you're just wondering about how you should act in front of them.
 

"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.

They give off really mixed signals sometimes. Like, when I meet them they act all interested again and flirty, but afterwards won't pick up their phones.

:nono: I ignore them or just smile and wave if she was a cool,sweet chic(usually that isn't the case).

But being freinds or stopping and having a conversation..never that...
