"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

last night could arguable be the worst night of my life.

ill keep it simple, my big party was ruinined...money down the drain.

Not to mention that, this girl that i was putting it on for the last couple of days ends up getting back with her "mentally" abusive ex-bf. I did'nt find out till she mentioned to her friend during the paryty. I couldnt understand it, this guy treated her like a POS. There was some chemistry between us. I used the usual methods of kino, C&F, ball busting...it all seemed to be working. Then getting back with her ex came out of left field, i never saw it coming.

ON TOP OF THAT...i was putting working it with another girl. I applied the same routine, C&F, Kino, ball busting, I THOUGHT IT WAS WORKING! Then last night came, and she goes..

her: "god..im so fustrated..i need sex"
me: "interesting...now are you looking for something term or something disposable for one night"
her: "watever, i dont care"
me: "well..all you have to do is ask"
her: "ewww...i wouldnt have sex with you. you are too good of a friend...it would be akward"

at that momemnt my mind went blank, how the hell did i end up in the friend zone? i never became her "gf", i avoided all the pitfalls that AFC's often fall into and thus become friends. i was sure of it, i done it in the past, i managed to keep women as "lover" status when i first meet them and not turn into their "Friend/girlfriend".

The only thing i can possibly think of was that she was just not attracted to me in the first place. She didnt see me that way. What do you guys think happened here? i honestly dont know.
 

"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.

I think your problem was coming out in the open and basically telling her that you were available for sex - this is what made her feel awkward. You shouldn't have verbalized or intellectualized it, just gone in for the kill.

Women like to feel things and believe that they 'just happened' but if you make her a formal proposition she will start to put up the ASD despite giving major buying signals.

Darn, my crystal ball just stopped working. You only told us the result, not the history, so how are we supposed to know why this happened between you two? Why don't you tell us the whole story and then we'll give our opinions as to why.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Yeah. You verbalized it, which seems to have been the problem. You made yourself far too available. I've hooked up with girls who have told me that they have no attraction to me whatsoever and don't want to think about hooking up with me. It's just about how you approach it.

I personally would have ignored her comment, talked to her a while more, kino'ed her and then gone someplace private.

It's OK. Live and learn buddy.

the replies you gave her were very AFC, you shouldve thought of something wittier or C&F to humor her.

yea, your replies did kinda sound like you were desperate...or offering yourself as an open option for her

Damn bro.

The responses could of been better!...When a girl says anything like that turn the tables playboy!

"god I'm frustrated and need sex."

- "Well you can go to 7-11 they should be open."

- "Are you trying to seduce me?"

- "Look, if your trying to get in my pants think again, I'm not that easy."
 

"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 am not busting your balls, becuase we all have done much, much worse, but what did you honeslty expect her to say? No woman in her right mind would have said "killerasp" I want you to tear my clothes off and let me have it right now" for fear of being seen as too easy.



her: "god..im so fustrated..i need sex"

this should have been the entire converstion. After this you go for it, unless of course, you don't want to.

I think you are in a better position than you realize. She probalby said that to save face.
