"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.

My Personal Resume
by G-Man


I met a girl at work about 6 months ago and we had a couple of very nice dates. The first one, I'd say, was the best first date I'd ever been on.

I wasn't initially super-attracted to this particular woman, and she wasn't what anyone would consider to be a "10". But I enjoyed talking to her so much that an attraction grew.

This is the first time I was willing to date a "tweener". A few pounds either way would make her really hot or really not. And I was proud of myself for not being shallow. That being said, I'm no "10" myself.

After our second date, I just got a really weird vibe. I asked her if we were just out on a date, or just out as "friends". She thought we were just friends.

We all know how that word, coming from a woman, feels. Personally, I'd rather get punched in the face than hear that ever again. Needless to say, my self-esteem was wounded.

Anyway, being a good sales rep, I summed up for her, in a light-hearted kind of way, all of the reasons I thought she should give me a try. I told her, "I'm 6'4" tall, good body, nice guy, six-figure income, witty, smart, lots of cash in the bank." She didn't disagree.

But then I realized something. I've got a pretty solid personal resume. I just never said it out loud before. This chick was turning down what was probably the best offer she would ever get!

I felt better immediately.

So guys, if you get turned down by a "tweener" or a "10", forget about it. Remind yourself of your good points, and get back out there.

Not every woman has to like you. Ultimately, you only need one.
Oh God, where to begin? First a guy rattles of a resume to a girl as though she's the CEO of ***** Inc. obviously begging for approval, then he encourages men to do the same, only to conclude that a man 'needs' a woman. :cuss:
 

"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.

Well the choice of words in the article isn't all that great...

But the essence is just a motivational article. The writer just wants guys to snap back to THEIR world when they are starting to feel the b1tch shield going up... instead of linguering around in her world in a downward spiral.

But yeah, all in all, if a clueless person reads this article, he's definitly going to get some wrong ideas about it. Then again, nothing says he should be reading just that one article ;-)

I know what you mean, I have some ambivalent feelings about this.

On the one hand, be proud of yourself, of what you have to offer and of what you have accomplished. Realize that you are no slouch.

On the other hand, there is no reason to justify your self-esteem everytime you get shot down by some bytch.

Your "personal resume" should just be a part of your personality, much like your favorite color. It's not something you conciously pull out of storage when your poor feelings have been slapped around.
 

"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.

Who goes out with a guy and lets him buy her dinner and then thinks they're just friends? Who takes their friend out regularly and treats them to everything?

^ALOT of women.

He didn't make his intentions clear that's why I'm against this C and F and neg hits crap.It comes off as freindly and innocent.

I'd rather go for full blown compliments and sexual advances right off the bat.

I agree...........c and f and neg hits are best used for conceited bytches who think that their shyt don't stink. For most girls, making them feel sexy as all hell is the key to getting laid. The problem with nice guys is they try to befriend these girls first and then BAM!........... one day they just poor their heart out to them or try to kiss them out of nowhere. It's much better to let them know from the get go what you want.
