"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've had several dates that went smoothly. The women were interesting, but I didn't feel anything.

After a few hours they end with her saying, "I had a good time, we should do this again, you have my #".

Q. How do I keep them on as female friends, but not lead them on that I'm interested?
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I suppose you ensure that whenever you meet them it is a non-dating atmosphere. No candlelit dinners, snuggly DVD nights are obviously out.

You can invite them to group events such as parties. But if you started it off as a prospective GF search, then you might have difficulties.

Alright, good idea. So if I'm going out with a friend I'll invite her along. Basically, nothing one on one. Thanks
