"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.

Some food for thought for the people that have low self esteem and confidence and wonder why they are unsuccessful with women, or are going through a period of disappointment and struggle where you question how to become the person you want to be...and who that person is.

"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.

That sounds awfully similar to the peptalk ugly women give to each other..."you're beautiful no matter what". Let's face it, just like many women aren't beautiful, many guys are not desirable. Engaging in self-delusion is not helpful. But recognizing your weaknesses and working to improve yourself is.

I find myself too desirable, that's half my problem. Any chance to grope my own ass and I'm on it like Sonic. A cheeky grab here and a cheeky grab there. I can't even walk past a shop window with gazing lovingly at my own reflection. I mean if I had a Vagina aswell as a Penis, I'd bang myself senseless.

100% true. Although all the successful narcissist personality disorder players out there prove that you can "fake it till you make it"
Yes you can fake it till you make it, but I would rather have people develop and grow through genuine and sustainable self-confidence rather than just putting on a mask or a guise every time they go out to the club.

You're missing the point here.

There are a couple scenarios here.

1. You are actually desirable to women but through unsuccessful events or just bad luck, your behavior has changed through those unsuccessful outcomes. Your mindset changes and you eventually believe you are undesirable which changes the way you act and talk.

By realizing that you ARE desirable to women, everything about your behavior changes.

2. You are not the most desirable man to women. In this case, just telling yourself you aren't desirable won't change anything. You just don't have many redeeming traits or standout points about yourself. This is where the self-improvement comes in. You have to REALIZE you aren't that desirable...and strive to change it.

It's all about having an attractive energy..and aura of desire. It's not just about how good you look (although that in itself is a big factor...but that can be improved on also).

The bottom line is...if you find yourself desirable women will too.

You have a correlation and causation matter here and chicken and egg question. Oftentimes it's more, "If no one else finds you desirable you won't either" than the converse. Thinking you are undesirable and experiencing being undesired correlate but that does not mean the thinking is the causation of being undesirable. And which came first? Thinking you were undesirable and then being rejected or being rejected and then thinking you are undesirable?

Now that's not to say believing in yourself doesn't help at all and that an otherwise desirable person wouldn't hurt their chances by not believing in themself. Delusion can work both way. But if you delusionally think you are desirable, people will not hesistate to try to let you know that you're not. Heck, they do it to some degree even if you are desirable out jealousy. True, no one will help a man when he's down. Well maybe if he is very good looking.

I see where you're going here, you are denying attraction is mostly based on looks. But if your premise is wrong then efforts to improve yourself will be mostly futile because you're not addressing the real cause.
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

So basically you are implying that you are a chronic masturbater. ;)

True, but don't find yourself so desirable that you get oneitis.
