"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.

I have been doing some introspection in the past few days and I have noticed that when I'm not doing school work, enjoying with friends, family and acquaintances or teaching myself computer science, I spend my time doing meaningless things and activities. It's not that I'm paralyzed and do nothing, but this problem f*cks up my time management plan on a daily basis.

I know I can do this with operant conditioning, but I would like to hear the best and worst practices to fix this issue.
 

"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.

Are they really meaningless if you enjoy them?

Instead of looking for meaning in your life try seeking fulfillment instead. Then you won't have to validate your life based on the arbitrary definitions of what every other individual sees as meaningful.

They are sort of an addiction, or an obstacle I want to pass in order to pursue fulfillment.

Time is merely an illusion for control, It has as much significance as you give it.
Unfortunately too many people become dictated by time to the extent, they stop living in the present and are either living in their past memories or looking forward/dreading an event in the future. While their life simply flashes by, without even realizing.

Time is not your issue. If you are not willfully conducting these 'meaningless' activities for enjoyment, than it is likely it is an automated response to an upcoming stressful situation, referred to as procrastination. Until you address this situation you will likely continue spending time on the 'meaningless' activities.

If that is not the case either, than you need to acknowledge these 'meaningless' activities are actually your medium for enjoyment and not necessarily a hindrance to your life, after all you are achieving an outcome.

I actually enjoy doing nothing and just breathing.
