"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 need to pay someone for an online freelance/VA project.

I'm a college student who has registered for classes next semester. Problem is, things have changed and I need to be in different classes now. Registration began over a month ago, and now pretty much all the classes are full.

I NEED TO SWITCH SEVERAL OF MY CLASSES.

The only way this can be done is to wait for someone else to drop, then register before someone else does. In the week leading up to school as well as the first two weeks, this should actually be fairly common. However, I can't sit at my computer 24/7 clicking away over and over until someone drops. Neither can I afford to just "check as often as I can" because chances are, someone else will take the spots I need.

So, I need to hire a VA/freelancer to get this job done. I don't care if they have to sit there and click 24/7, but since I am only going to pay the lowest bidder who gets the job done, chances are the job will be done by someone who can automate a macro/program that will repeatedly check my school's website portal for openings and subsequently register me when there is.

Does anyone know where is the best place for me to find someone to do such a job for me? How should I handle payment? How do I make sure I find someone who will successfully get the job done? Can I hire multiple people/teams and only pay whoever gets it done? How do I show them that I actually will pay upon completion of the job?

And I do understand that I will have to give my login info to my university's online portal. There's not really any sensitive information to be extracted/damage to be done using my login info, but I still assume the risks.
 

"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.

Can't you ask/pay a friend or relative?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Usually the first day of classes is when payment is due. Some students neglect paying when they register, so they're automatically kicked from enrollment. Sometimes you have to manually close your browser and delete the contents of the cache before it will refresh properly -- but if you refresh at the right time, you'll see a few available slots appear in classes that have only a couple of people on the wait list.

You're SOL if most of the sections you could add are in high demand and have wait lists of 10 or more. Nothing's gonna help you.
