"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.

Ok, work with this girl at my extra weekend job. Chatted with girl for a bit over the weekend and found out she's a fairly cool girl. Got her number because she gets a lot of free sports tickets through her day job and I told her to give me a call if she needs someone to go with. Anyway, I would like to hang out with her regardless but I don't know if it'll look weird if I just call her to
hang out (since she barely knows me). I did tell her I'd come say hi to
her at some event she's doing pr at this week (it's near my work). Any suggestions guys? And sorry if I'm asking a stupid question but I've always had rotten luck with women and am beginning to think I'm doing something fundementally wrong.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

You're not doing any fundamentally wrong. If she barely knows you she'll automatically have her shield up. In order for her to be more comfortable, invite her to a movie outing with some of your (non-jerk) friends - it'll feel a lot more casual and no pressure. Once you guys get a couple of outings down, it'll be a lot more easier to invite her out alone later on down the road.

Never meant I was doing something fundamentally wrong with her, but in the past I've screwed up with girls (almost every girl) and didn't know what I did wrong. So I'm trying to be careful here.

Whenever you decide to invite her to spend time with you, DO NOT DO IT BY PHONE. Do it IN PERSON, after some small talk and right before ending it on a high note.

Good advice.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

yep, good advice. Shouldn't be too hard to do seeing as I see a couple times a week. I was thinking of mentioning to her that we should do something when I see her at that event she's doing but maybe that's too soon.
